I for one am having problems with battery drain when the GPS goes wacky. I am using iGo8, apparently, any gps program that uses the com port like iGo8 will drain the battery. These Nav programs that use the com port are having problems with GPS lag. Google Maps on the other hand doesn't use the com port, and won't drain your battery, or have GPS lag. you can read about that in other threads.
thanks for the info


i went back to the USC. i dont use any GPS apps really... just for the weather i guess when i manually update it but other than that nothing else.


for now i guess i will stay with this radio till something else comes out.
