Ramblings of Nick Robillard

Well I was finally able to really use the GPS capabilities of the iPhone and I'm really impressed. For one, I was really happy that the GPS features didn't literally need a straight shot to the sky. A car roof or something similar doesn't render the GPS useless. (i think it updates a little less) The Maps app updated very smoothly when I had a straight shot skywards (many times a second) and went down to maybe once every 2 seconds when a car roof was in the way.
