I'm still wondering *why* we need to use an AGPS device that's so dumb
that it needs the *host* to do most of the calculations, when we could
have used a SIRF-STAR III sensor, that does everything inside, just
like
the GSM/GPRS module.
I would suspect: size, matching interfaces, availability, cost of
additional components?
If you look at the pictured of the PCB there isn't much room...
There is a technology trend called "Software Defined Radio" http://
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_radio
which tries to get rid of as many components as possible and do
everything by software inside a 45nm chip...
