The fact that it the device is loaded might use a bit more power. It shouldn't be noticeable though. Being loaded is not the same as being in use, and the GPS goes to 'sleep' when it is not being used.

I believe that the GPS service is kindof like a go-between for the OS and the device. I'm probably wrong on that, but either way, it is just a process that sits in idle like any other running program.

At the end of the day, provided you haven't been actively using the GPS, there should be no noticeable difference in power.


Also, I noticed you're in SC. Any idea if we have revA at all? I'm in Clemson right now, but I didn't notice a difference after the upgrade.
