I don't know if it's something specific to my unit (seems unlikely), but
I am finding that the internal GPS locks on MUCH faster and holds lock
much better with the 1.2007.42-18 version of the firmware than with
the newer 1.2007.42-19. This seems to be true with both the included
Wayfinder application and Maemo Mapper.

Of course, this means no Skype, but that's less important to me than
a stable GPS.

Has anyone else had the same experience?
