GC - how can we verify that AGPS is actually working?

I have not done the aGPS settings in QPST nor have I applied any cabs. My stuff SEEMS to be aGPS. Nothing has locked where this phone has locked before without aGPS. Unless this just has the mother of all GPS recievers I am safe to say this is auto aGPS, atleast on my ROM.

To verify here is what I did.... I disconected data and piped LiveSearch though WiFi. AS soon as I did that Live Search told me I was in the atlantic Ocean, off the coasty of Afric. Just so you know IM not there. As soon as I started Data it locked back into my actual location. Shut data off and I am in the ocean again.

Can someone else try and post results.

GC, what do you think that means? Its repeatable every time.
