any ideas.
I have location on, using CF03 and google maps takes forever to find any signal. Actually, any program takes forever. Usually around 10 minutes or more. I tired google maps, windows live, and IGO8. I also have a bluetooth GPS, and if I connect that to my omnia, I get cold lock in about a minute. I think the GPS just sucks in the phone.
