Update to this problem.

Version 1.1 of the SDK uses just LocationListener.
Version 1.5 introduces GpsSatellite class.   Apparently you can get a
list of satellites, but the satellite count still is delivered as an
extra in Location objects whenever LocationListener.onLocationUpdate
is called.
Version 1.6 breaks this behavior.  Apparently, satellite count only
comes through the GpsSatellite class.

You broke my client....  Or, am I missing something?
