My 6515 takes an extremely long time to get a 'fix' at start-up as well.
In fact, I've tried the GPS about 5 times now and gave up on 4 times coz it was taking forever to find my present location.
Open skies too. :/

lag is neglible on mine, as compared to when I was using a BT with mini.
for getting location fix fast, make sure you have downoaded the satellite locatiosn via A-GPS. It should give you a fix within seconds,

Same case yesterday. End up I read the map and told the taxi driver.

I had used the Quick GPS software (when my cradle was still functioning and I could still sync) less than a day before I tried my MapKing.
I'm impressed that you managed to get a fix within seconds. :whistle: Is there anything else you did? I installed the programme in the main memory and the map in my miniSD.

to me. so far the fix is fast as long as the database is updated. the navigation speed is a bit slow & intermittently cut off. but overall, the performance is still acceptable. :wink:

cut off or intermitten are expected, as compared to bluetooth gps reciever ( which gets to sit on the dashboard)
but as for the lag, if you meant, reaching the intersection, then the audio prompt comes..
it's acutally due to the map itself, try downloading the kingmap singapore trial and rename the map ext file to mk7 ( good for 3 days trial)
and try it. u'll be surprised with the improvments of the accuracy
