I always believe that the speedo is the one to go by when your speed is changing as its instantaneous, but if you cruise at 70 on your speedo then the Road Angel/TomTom is the correct speed...

If that makes sense...

True, GPS doesn't allow for gradients only distance...

This is aquote from Wikipedia

"GPS receivers can also gauge altitude and speed with a very high degree of accuracy."

So I guess accuracy is a function of the receiver & not the GPS satellites.

Ah fair enough, so it depends on the system you run...

I dont think TOMTOM 500 does gradients lol
