why are Android phones in general so slow at getting a GPS fix ? The Samsung Infuse 4G I played with prior to buying the HOX was terrible at getting a GPS lock. Some blamed the chipset Samsung used while others said the problem was with Android OS. I had hoped using a phone with much better hardware (and different mfg) and the newest OS would fix the problem. Alas it hasn't. My iOS devices (even a wifi only iPad) get a MUCH faster GPS lock.
