Help...iGuidance v4 and HTC touch...map updates intermittently

My map does not show the vehicle moving...but updates the vehicle on the map intermittenly. The gps embedded in the PDA seems to be working fine...lat and long and speed on gps screen is constantly changing...just not updating maps. Any suggestions?

From what I understand (I have a HTC Mogul with GPS) is that the GPS units in our phones use triangulation to get their posistion, they do not connect directly to satelittes in space, but use cell towers instead. It could be that with this method, iGuidance is not getting the information fast enough to update it. I have iG4 also, but have never tested it on my Mogul. If you have a bluetooth GPS laying around, pair it with your Touch and try iGuidance again using the BT GPS, I am assuming your update issues will go away and it will show it in real time.
