Well, yes and no. It's *capable* of AGPS, but I don't think that's turned on by default. Locating satellites and getting a fix is quicker using assistance (that's the benefit of AGPS), but communication with a tower is not necessary. The GPS works fine with the phone turned off or out of communication range. I haven't checked the registry with the release ROM, but in the beta version AGPS was turned off by default in the registry.
