ProximityRadius *is* big. I think I was using 1500 meters in the field test today. The "10 feet" I mentioned below was the minimum distance to travel before doing an location update. And I mean "10 meters".
I beginning to think my mental model is all wrong. I thought I could blindly throw intents out to the Android and it would fire off PAs back at me. Which intent belonged to which latlong was my problem to figure out. I'm now thinking I need to keep each PA intent in a global data structure^W^W^Winstance variable and carry them around with me and run an RequestUpdate on each one. :-? Is there someway for me to monitor myLocationManager to see when he fires off a PA?
