oh no don't get me wrong : it is not a tangogps issue. I said it was in the same time that tango droped satellite in view info in gui (which reinforce the impression of bad gps to the user) and yes I wanted to make a mail about it since at least two month... :) But now it is confrimed (by everyone?) it should be taking attention. (I hope)
