I think its just something that were going to have to live with. Either the chipset is poor as a gps receiver, or the drivers htc wrote are poor. but i dont think this will ever work like a bluetooth receiver or standalone gps system.

I somewhat agree and disagree.
At this point the GPS on my Vogue is not as accurate as my Kaiser, my position jumps around 5-50 feet and it rarely gets an exact pinpoint.
On my Kaiser (which supposedly has similar hardware but different software [drivers and whatnot]) I am able to get a lock in several seconds with an exact pinpoint on my location. Also, many Kaiser users like myself report getting a faster lock with various radios. That's why I'm on the lookout for different radios (and drivers).
Anyways, the progress being made lately has been AMAZING! Props to those who have been raising the bar!
