[Loadstone] ASsisted or integrated

[Stephen Giggar]

That is strange! Is I have the Network based turned off and assisted GPS 
turn on! I see no GPRS traffic. Mine asked about the NETWORK being it was 
turned off and I told it not to use it.

We had some talk about this a few month ago on this list and found that you 
can use Assisted GPS with no Sim card in the phone. So it doesn't need a 
active sim card and doesn't need to transfer data. After all, they now have 
stand alone external GPS unit that ahve Assisted GPS built into them and 
there is no network Data charges for them.

Hardware eventually fails, software eventually works.
No amount of bandwidth can fix poor design.
