and via Wifi:

This would allow you to use A-GPS/GLONASS from your Jolla on a PC or a tablet for navigation etc. Some tablets haven’t got GPS but some apps support GPS via Wifi. Even if your tablet has got a GPS then you could add some accuracy from using your GPS/GLONASS combination instead. I would use this for marine navigation and maybe even for sending the location to my VHF radio :)
