ASUS Transformer Prime sees v8.8.3.33 OTA update, GPS and performance improved

For as much grief as ASUS is getting for its Transformer Prime , we’re actually kind of surprised it’s throwing the masses any bones at all. ‘Course, one might say that having a riled-up customer base is better than having no customer base at all. Regardless of all that, a relatively small v8.8.3.33 update is purportedly hitting select Prime tablets today, with the over-the-air update bringing improved focus on the camera, bolstered touchscreen performance and enhanced GPS speed

China begins trial operations of home grown Beidou GPS system

The Russians have GLONASS , and the EU will eventually have Galileo, so China’s probably been feeling left out of the GPS party so far. Not for much longer though, as the switch for its home grown Beidou system has just been flicked on, providing location and timing data to its home turf. There are ten satellites already in place and six more to follow next year, by which time, most of the Asia Pacific will be covered

LightSquared not looking so good sans FCC approval, files petition to confirm its spectrum rights

It’s been an up and down year for LightSquared, as the company lined up plenty of customers for its wholesale LTE network, but GPS interference issues have put the would-be wireless provider’s plans on hold while it waits for FCC approval. According to a report by Reuters , LightSquared’s finances may prevent it from exercising the patience needed to wait that long, as it posted a $427 million net loss during the first nine months of 2011.
