3000 meters, or 300 meters or anything over 30 meters indicates a total GPS fail and a location based on land antenna.
The symptoms I have are my Epic seeing the GPS Satellites but not using them for a position lock and falling back to the rough estimates from land antenna. It does this intermittently, usually if I have not fully turned of the Phone in a the prior 24 hours. If I have turned the phone on and off recently I get a very quick GPS lock.

The current issue which remains in the GPS that samsung promised to fix is the multipath issue..which pretty much means its not calculating in the bouncing off objects thus getting inaccurate reading.

I also called to day about problems with speed because of problem using Qik. I tested using four testing sites and two test apps and my download speed was 80 to 148kb. I was first told 3G is not capable of more than 150 download and that Qik cannot work on 3G. I went to my local store and the Epic there was getting 132 down and the Evo was getting 228 to 312 down.

I found my signal to be on par with my TP2 so don't know what to say, might be because my area just has good signals...from what I hear others are saying is EVO used to be the same and after a few radio updates got better.
