Assisted GPS and Nokia

4 replies · 1,977 views · Started 19 July 2007

In a not-too-surprising statment, Nokia has announced the intention to equip all of its future devices that have built-in GPS with 'Assisted GPS' (using satellite ephemeris info, loaded over a data connection to give the GPS locking procedure a big head start - see also my feature on Assisted GPS technology). This includes the N95 now, of course, through the v12 firmware update, though watch out for the keypress bug.

Read on in the full article.

Is this on a cellular network basis (o2, vodafone, etc), or it just works independent of the network?

I am really pleased with the way that pictures taken with my N95 now are Geotaged by ShoZu and the Geotag is displayed as map within Flickr.

See my flickr link.

Need latest N95 firmware, latest version of Shozu.
The Shozu share-It setting needs to have GPS tagging set on.
