I also had this problem, it seems that the sample code does not check if the GPS fix is real.
I have changed the line before print lat long to this:
if (device.fix[1] & location.GPS_DEVICE_LATLONG_SET) and not (device.status & location.GPS_DEVICE_STATUS_NO_FIX):
I haven't tested much after the change, but this seems to work better.

I tried the change on the bus home, and made one more addition to that line:
if (device.fix[1] & location.GPS_DEVICE_LATLONG_SET) and (device.fix[1] & location.GPS_DEVICE_TIME_SET) and not (device.status & location.GPS_DEVICE_STATUS_NO_FIX):
N.B: I don't know if these changes have negative effects on battery drain or something else. Try these changes at your own risk.

Works like a charm! Thanks!
It also seems to shutdown the GPS chipset after it's done.
The only issue is when it can't get a fix, you'll need to force quit.

Not sure if anyone cares... but i got cell_info with python like this:
Code:
import dbus
bus = dbus.SystemBus()
proxy = bus.get_object("com.nokia.phone.net","/com/nokia/phone/net",False)
cell_info = proxy.get_registration_status(dbus_interface="Phone.Net")
print cell_info
