Device Location on Map

I've been using a multiple location map, the items that I plot work just fine, however the device location is often incorrect, this is because it does not seem to update all of the time. When you click the device location marker it says, You are here, as reported by your device, however if I used Google Maps, it clearly shows the device's correct location. Any Ideas?

Did you fill in the location info in the application? (This is for a version 2.0 buzztouch.com hosted application) That might "fix" the starting location for maps.

Please report what platforms you are developing for, which app version you are developing on (1.4, 1.5, 2.0, or your own BT server) And when you say "the device location is often incorrect" are you aware of any differences in the testing device state? e.g. my Samsung Galaxy allows me to control whether wi-fi is used to enhance GPS locations. Also, where are you testing and on what phone(s) and networks?
