While the 1st fix is indded time consuming, I didnt find the subsequnt fixes to be so long.

Today I restarted the GPS after having reflashed to the new N800 OS update for N810, and I restarted while driving slowly in my car - it took around 1 mins - the satelitites data screen showed up with at least 5 lock-ins - and I closed the screen and it went straight to the map.

I think you dont have to wait on the screen to close maybe...

While driving the routes and turns showped pretty acurate - just as I tuk a turn, it showd the turn itself . I have used a Magellan nefore and this was comparable to it in terms of map accuracy.

While driving, I tried to pan the map with the finger and then it showhow got stuck , without the map showing me progress ... so I closed and restarted the app - and it got back to the map screen pretty well.

So far so good for me.
