    Keep in mind this is relatively new. The press seems to be spinning it as an "ah ha, old phones really are getting slower!" Well, yes, now . I mean as of 10.2.1, so a year ago, but…

    That’s what sensor fusion is for. That said, inertial nav can take a plane across the country without correction and get within sight of the target. I think integrating actual spee…

    That this is a problem is just ridiculous. It's on freaking rails! There is absolutely no excuse for this. GPS, Inertial Nav, simply integrating speed over time, it should be absol…
