Uploading almanac and ephemeris really helps, as this necessary information then don't need to be downloaded slowly from the satellites. An approximate location helps further. A wrong location may delay the first fix instead, or make the device fail. > My brother has N95 with Agps and he does not have to provide his > location while using agps service. An AGPS setup don't have to use a location. Or the approximate location can be supplied automatically as the tower location. You are necessarily within 20km of the tower - much closer if in a city. The tower can supply its location, or the phone can have a database of all tower locations. The latter approach is the more realistic approach for openmoko users. They rather helps building a cell database, than pay for AGPS service.
