I'm experiencing two types of problems with the latest Firmware and Map application (2.2.8.604), which I didn’t have with OS 2007 version. I have N800 and Nokia LD-3W GPS module.

First problem is that the location on the map and, also, the current speed indicator are updated very “slowly”. The location indicator is far behind the location where I actually am. When I stop it eventually catches me up. Also, it takes few seconds for the speed indicator to show the actual speed.
The GPS module should send updates once every second and this was the update speed with the previous version of Map.

The other problem is that if I shut down the GPS receiver Map application won’t notice it. Nor will it notice when I turn it back on. To make the Map to get data from the GPS again I will have restart the Map application. The previous version always noticed when the connection to the GPS was lost. The “speaker” constantly complained about it. When GPS was turn on again it started working normally.

Anyone experienced this kind of behavior?
