I've read a interesting bit about constant GPS updates in the BlackBerry developer handbook. Could those of you, who've got a problem with frequent disconnects set their update interval to anything less than ten seconds for some tests? 9 seconds should be ok and what value below 10 you choose shouldn't change anything.
Because according to the developers handbook the device will permanently try to aquire new data when the requested update interval is less than ten seconds ... maybe there's some bug in the BB OS there.
