I tried using the GPS right after the update and it kept putting me in Portland, OR (i'm in Houston), after about 5 minutes Maps finally figured out where I was.

Of course I only use maps when I'm lost so it was tad frustrating

Whoa dude.... I actually live in Portland, OR, and today it kept showing me in Houston, but then you're right, it would correct itself after a bit.

That's odd/interesting

*chuckles* my 1st gen has been doing that every once in a while since I got it 3 months back. But here's the funny thing. I'm in the San Francisco area. And it keeps saying I'm in one of these three places : Portland Oregon, Houstan Texas, and some city on Canada. I don't even understand the Canadian one since my version shouldn't work there any how.

The strainge thing is, the 2.0.1 update fixed it all for me. Now my not-gps phone is dead on with only the edge signal *scratches head*
