Thanks
AGPS makes acquiring a fix much faster than just using the gps receiver and doing a sky search. Without agps you will eventually get a fix. sO, if your n900 does not get a fix AT ALL (leave it for 20\30 mins using something besides Nokia Maps) then your device has a hw fault.

(Edit: thanks pichlo for the heads up. Never use Nokia Maps so who would know.....)
