10.3 Downloading Location Data via QuickGPS
Before using your phone for GPS navigation, open
QuickGPS
to download
ephemeris data (current satellite position and timing information). QuickGPS
significantly speeds up the time for determining your GPS position. QuickGPS
downloads ephemeris data from Web servers, instead of from satellites, using your
phone’s Internet connection via Wi-Fi, ActiveSync or GPRS/G.
