The last sort've improvement technology that I know of was WAAS,
I'm not sure if that is what Don is referring to or not. Its been a
while since I have looked at GPS units though, so there might be
something that has come out since then. I've had my GPS for around 4
years now, and it is WAAS enabled. (I'm not sure what WAAS is or what
it stands for and I am too busy to go look it up at the moment, but
there's always Google for that in case anyone is curious.) :-)
