yeah, had thought about that possibility, but the main issue seems to be not with the GPS seeing a signal or signals, but in locking onto the signal, even when its > 20 SNR
i originally hoped that was a GSM antenna socket, so like an ericsson phone i had, it had a socket in the same place, and a rubber plug on the backside, with a car dock that when you dropped it into th card dock, the external or auxiliary antenna was connected - i was thinking of rural areas where cell coverage gets weak
