Yes i had some start problems.

I did a search for a couple of hours around my
house in several places to get i fix. But i tested with the gps on my A780
first to find the best coverage.

But now after i got my first fix it starts quite fast. I am also using a
external antenna (not when i git the first fix) with it now to have coverage
inside, but it works fine also without.
