A-GPS utilizes data from a satellite reference network that is continually updated in the TCS XLP A-GPS Server. The TCS A-GPS Server sends this aiding data to the mobile over an Internet Protocol (IP) connection established by the mobile. The Aiding Data assists the GPS receiver in the mobile handset to determine where to acquire overhead satellites. This significantly increases the sensitivity of the device so it works effectively from inside a briefcase or pocket. The Time to First Fix of the device is quicker, helping keep battery consumption to a minimum. The combined features make TCS' A-GPS Server the most accurate and commercially viable option for mobile positioning.

Theres no quetion there. The statement is correct. Its states that "This significantly increases the sensitivity of the device so it works effectively from inside a briefcase or pocket" This isnt even relevent. This helps, yes, but is no where needed if you are navigating in your CAR, as most would. When was the last time you have been using your navigation while it was in your pocket or briefcase???
