If they ever get the funding sorted out - see 
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/07/05/galileo_commons_debate/ and related 
stories at the bottom of the page. I don't think they've even launched a test 
constellation yet. I wouldn't expect any current navigation chipset to 
support it at this stage.
