What I think is weird is that the airrave run off of GPS itself and off your internet connection. I would think that between those 2 things it would have not effect on how the phone pics up weather.
I did find a way to get my weahter to update in my house w/ the airrave on. What I do is to turn on my wifi and click update usually twice and then is is fine.
Thanks mike i wasnt sure about this.

My understanding of the airave that it in essence acts somewhat like a VOIP phone and uses your broadband connection to send and recieve that phone signal. While it is programed to "know" your location for E-911, that location is not used in determining the local weather. The actual "my location" weather data is the location that is broadcast from a physical cell tower.
Also, for some of the people that are getting wonky locations when they are connected to the airave, I think that has to do with where the call ends up getting transferred from the airave system to an actual cell tower system. It may for some reason pick up that location info and tag it to your weather.
