Yes, and for me anyway it has solved the problem of a long delay in Sat lock issues. My best time is a 14 second lock and my worst has been just under a minute and that has been consistent. Others haven't been as fortunate, but for me A-GPS beta has been the best option to come out of Nokia to solve the slow satellite aquisition problem.
