Found "GPSToggle" for Titanium!

Not exactly, but it's a Titanium panel that switches on your GPS and then turns it off again....and then checks for another lock in 5 minutes and then then turns it off again to save battery. Haven't checked it out yet, but plan to today:

And it works exactly as it should. Installed, turned it on..ten minutes later I turned on Google Maps and it was an instant lock. Sweet!

BW, any chance of this being ported to Neo?

I can verify that it works! Google Maps and Bing lock instantly. Now to make sure there isn't too much of a drain on the battery.

is it a better solution than gpsgate?

Haven't used gps gate in a while, but this is for winmo6.5. It's like gpstoggle.

I've found some rather interesting bugs. These by no means are a deal breaker. They are minor, more irritating things. Everything still 'works'

Battery drains, but honestly, it's to be expected.
While it's running, ie connected to gps (doin' it's thing), it messes with titanium. The transparent bar on the top will go to a non transparent bar (no biggie). Hitting the end key won't go back to cClock until you select another panel, but then it works until you check the CGPS panel (no biggie). This one is strange, when exiting out of a convo via sms, it'll go the home screen, but the bottom bar for sms stays, hitting end fixes it (more irritating than anything). Once you hit 'close' on the CGPS panel, everything goes back to normal (all bugs disappear).
