GPS issues
I recently upgraded my 3G to 3.0 and everything works fine except the GPS location. It says that I am in Detroit on the lake (wish I was). Does anyone have any suggestions for fixing this issue? I get lost a lot so this is veeeeery important to me.
Thanks.

are you talking about google maps location? or are you using a particular GPS app?

actually, mine doesn't work at all. I have tried a few different GPS apps and all of them tell me the GPS isn't working at all. I've tried all the typical fixes listed around the web. (My personal favorite apple fix is to restore the phone... always love that one)
I can get cell tower triangulation just fine.
