Re: 3.37 radio vs 3.35 radio

The AstroLauncher is nothing more than a "priming tool" that opens the com ports for applications that can't do it on their own. It does not effect TimeToFirstFix (ttff).

I have yet to make a video of this for proof, but a couple of days ago, I took my Touch with the Alltell update and my Mogul with the OE gps update side-by-side, launched TomTom, and watched the satellite status screen.

With the two devices laying on my nightstand side-by side, after they both got a lock, they were showing pretty much identical data with a lock on the same number of satellites.

That said, I don't think one radio is going to make a bit of difference over the other!
