[Electronics-talk] GPS in the Big City

[Jim Barbour]

Hey Tracy,

I can say for sure that the iPhone works better New York City then the Sandero braille note PK solution.

I used to used the Sendero  Solution several years ago, but used iPhone the last two times I was in New York. Much, much better.

Hope that helps,

Jim

It frequently says I'm 2 blocks away from where I know I am, and heading in a different direction than I'm heading.  My question is, does this happen with all GPS in big cities, or is it because the GPS is running on a PK, not the most powerful system in the world?  Would, say, IPhone GPS be more reliable in the big city?
