It's not really entirely aGPS. It's only using aGPS to help fire the GPS ONE chip up faster. It gives it the info it needs to make faster locks. It's assisted GPS like the Sprint users have had for so long that we've been wanting. It's dialing out because you've now given the GPS ONE chip (by using QPST) an IP address to check position with. It pretty much gives it your approximate location, then it can lock real sats much faster because it alreday knows approximately where you are. Your GPS is still real GPS, not aGPS after applying this fix.

GC14 kicks major butt! He's given us what we've so desperately needed all this time.
