Hi Everett, Anna Dresner followed that procedure with her iPhone 3GS and reported that afterwards Navigon acquired a lock on the GPS signal much faster: typically within 30 seconds where previously it took her 10 minutes or more. This process not only resets your memory settings, but reorganizes the currently used memory from your back up. I suspect that it makes the process and timing of the GPS acquisition more efficient, since your iPhone is using assisted GPS to lock onto the signal. While it didn't affect GPS signal strength, it did improve the effectiveness of GPS acquisition speed.
