Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone knew anything about this...I know that A-GPS grabs info from the cell-network to find the closest satellite so you don't have the "warm up time" of regular GPS, but in the iPhone blurb Apple seems to say that A-GPS won't just use the mobile net to get this, they will be able to use a wi-fi network too?

Does that mean if someone was clever enough my wi-fi base station (with dd-wrt loaded) would be able to grab that data from the net and pump it to my iPhone? Or would we only be talking about hotspots that have a bit more complex back-end than that?

It would be cool if a wifi router could do this.

Any thoughts?

No they're referring to WiFi positioning it's not really AGPS in the sense that it will help get an actual GPS fix faster. There's a small app called GPS Info that will show what kind of fix you're getting on the iPhone, GSM, WiFi or GPS.
