Theorectically it should - with a Sat lock. But I have never really observed it on my Desire - can't check it while I am driving. However when I was in a bus recently I did observe the speed change with very little lag.

Hi jchoong, I assume you are using the HTS desire? How fast and accurate is the GPS - satellite lock-in?

I'm deciding between Garmin Asus A10 (heard the GPS sat lock in is very fast, nav software also very good) and HTC Desire.

My HTC Desire, on Papago, usually lock onto the Sats within 20 secs - depending on weather condition and tall buildings in the vicinity. If I am do a hard reset of my Desire, I would usually run either GPS Status or GPS Test (both free apps on Market) to get a fast first sat lock.

Isn't Garmin discontinuing the A10 as well as the other phone models?

Thanks. How much does it cost to install the papago x5 software? I assume mfm will continue to support papago? (i tot I read that mfm will stop supporting papago, but I may be wrong).

I have been using gmxt+mfm on my nokia. really a great combi. So I hope to continue with mfm maps as I search for my next phone :) Any great choice to recommend?

As for garmin & asus split, i've read about this, but no one is sure, really. Should I wait and see?
