Just a nagging curiosity:
Can someone explain the science behind why tomtom takes forever to find a GPS (if it has been off for a while), and why quickGPS helps in some way?
I've seen tomtom take 15-20 minutes indoors without quickGPS, then lock onto a strong signal. What can it possibly be doing to miss a strong signal for 15 minutes of trying?
FYI, I also noticed my sirius satellite radio do the same thing if its been off for a while.
