so basically that means we're all back to square one on the unbelievably slow satellite lock with no solution in sight other than to hold the N810 in your hand a certain way and hope for the best.

Nah, just make sure your finger doesn't cover the antenna. That said, seeing that someone's already put up a tutorial on cracking the NiT open, why not just find a way to reposition the GPS antenna where it could work better?

I have always been happy with how fast it would get a lock.
but... today I am trying and currently have not got a lock in the last 5 minutes
am doing everything exactly the same.. Hopefully it is just a glitch - will try again later.

Make sure you're outside, with a clear view of the sky, hold the tablet with the left side vertical, your hand and body well clear of that area, and you should get a lock. Being inside or having your hand or body near the antenna can easily block the very weak GPS signals. Liquid water and metal will block them completely.

I still think there is more than the leap year bug in gpsd. Would really appreciate if Nokia could fix this issue.
