Just got it yesterday, but my field trials show 8-11 satellites seen, and it seems to work quite well.
Good luck!

I've had that receiver since May or so and it has worked great. I just turn it on, toss it in my cargo pocket and go. The battery lasts more than a day's trip worth (rated for 17hrs, never used it that long in one go), and I always have a GPS lock. It's great not having to start up your GPS all the time and having to wait for a lock after every stop.
