Nokia provides faster GPS fix
'Nokia makes finding yourself faster with new A-GPS service' is a press release from Nokia about a service that provides a quicker position fix than when using GPS only. The N95 is terribly slow at this, but that can't be the only reason. Nokia's LD-3W module is much quicker.

It doesn't say how it's technically implemented. I doubt that Nokia has knowledge of all operators' base station positions and cell IDs around the world, so how is it done? Please fill in, if you know more.
