To which application are you referring? The only GPS appl I have been able to identify is QuickGPS, which downloads the latest satellite data via an Internet connction. If I have missed another, please let me know as it would not be the first time I missed something.

BTW, the configuration options for QuickGPS are:
- remind me when the data expires
- autodownload when data expires
- autodownload when connected to PC via ActiveSync

The data is valid for 7 days, so updating the satellite data is unlikely to be a drain--unless of course, there is a bug in the program.

BTW, I had this same setup when using DCD's previous ROM, and did not have the battery drain problem. As a side note, while others who have seen improvements with the official Sprint ROM, the GPS performance does not seem to lock in any quicker -- if it is, its not significantly faster.
