Default HTC Trophy GPS/location services not working

Am currently using an HTC Trophy and location based services are not working. Maps won't locate me - just perpetually displays "Searching ..." - and no other app can make use of GPS.

The available settings aren't especially granular in WP7 and I don't see any options besides having GPS ON or OFF. Toggling this setting has no effect.

Any ideas?!

Thanks!

UPDATE: It's the o2 SIM. Swapped out SIM with Vodafone and Orange SIMs and GPS works both on those tow networks. I don't understand as the same o2 SIM does GPS just fine in an HD2 and an HD Mini.

Yes ... doesn't work inside or out, where I've walked through the city with it.

Disappointing, as this issue aside, really like the handset and love WP7 ...
