Don't loose your marbles yet. Try it a couple more times, try runing Live Search (Track Me Using GPS). Put the phone by a window and leave it. The first time I tried tried the GPS, I think it took anywhere from three to five minutes to lock. It does lock a lot faster now

I tried it outside with google map during 2-3 min then google maps gave me and error saying something like "no satellites were found.. try outside .. check you gps configs .... blah blah"

My phone is not activated yet. I want to bargain a good deal with Telus first. Do you think that's the root cause ?

Anyone having issue with GPS should try running the GPS Registry Settings cab from the diamond forum: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=36639

Since installing that I am locking on 5-9 sats in google maps within seconds.

O'Neil Mitchell: most sats i've seen in google maps is 11 so far.
