When I travelled a lot I latterly took a GPS satnav everywhere. I noticed it 
sometimes took a (very) long time to lock on and on reading about it 
discovered that the software assumes it is still near where it was last 
switched off when it is next t switched on. Then it starts searching from 
there. I assume NZ to Solms takes a lot of satellite checks! Now it "knows 
where it is" I imagine each time will be as quick as the second!
