Maybe it's something related to A-GPS being unable to connect to the
location server? Is the internet connection active, and can you reach
the server by other means, e.g. ping?

I never had a problem like the one described here, using o2 Germany
with internet connection set to always on. The configuration of A-GPS
can be found in Settings/Location. I have network positioning enabled
and the location server is supl.nokia.com. Needless to say that GPS
has to be enabled too, and that the GPS device needs to be set to
"Internet GPS".

Nice, that is a kind of farewell worth of the good ol' shuttle.
