Re: Official 800w GPS discussion

It's a little shady really for some of those posters to say that after a while it loses GPS connectivity. The Mogul does the same thing if it doesn't have a clear line of sight to the sky. I've experienced this with my wife's Mogul and if I'm in a car the GPS connection is either crappy or it loses it's position fix if I don't have the phone on the dash or have the phone in my hand sticking out the window. Now if you tell me that you're walking in the middle of a park and you lose GPS connectivity then that's a different story...

Needless to say GPS will need a little bit of the network to get the time but I wonder if that's even necessary...if the network is available it should probably switch to the phone's time if it's that important.
