Smatphone GPS accurate/reliability...

Just curious on your guys thoughts on how accurate the mph is on a smartphone... If I want rock solid numbers should I be looking at maybe a garmin gps?

i have checked mine against my Garmin.. seems pretty accurate but maybe a hair slower to update...

Probably +/- .5 MPH that I noticed but again.. it could be b/c of a lil delay on iPhone apps I have.

get a real hand held GPS if you need accurate numbers the phones don't always work well
