Question or two?

[Savin]

My testing of my sysonchip compact flash has not been as great as first thought? It appears that i am suffering a little lag with the system?

Can anyone tell me what factors will introduce lag? For example i dont have much free space on my SD card. Will this have any influence? I have a 3rd party task switcher running again will this make much difference? What about low battery (i've not yet purchased an in car power adapter until i'm happy the system is working OK)?

I have tried the system running the generic NMEA 4800 drivers in TomTom3, I have tried the sysonchip compact flash nmea drivers, i have tried the generic sirf drivers all with the same results being a small amount of lag, maybe a couple of seconds and enough to be irritating?

Any ideas or remedies please?

Also what is the difference between NMEA and Sirf??

Just for the record the system is a acer N10 with a sysonchip compact flash receiver running tomtom3, checkpoint & Vbar with 128meg SD card. I'm getting great satelite fixes usually 7 on average and in some case as many as 10 which seems awfully good (i'm not experienced with GPS so this might not be as good as i think?).

any ideas?

Cheers
