My Qstarz bt1300 gps is now showing that I'm consistently 20m off towards the east. On ovi map, it constantly recalculates as it thinks I'm on the other side of the highway.

Excellent! Let them know how "wobbly" the performance of their GPS chip.

I don't use any 3rd party sw to test it, I simply use the location app already on the phone and when it isn't working it does not pick up any satalite, the gps icon comes on indicating that it is supposed to be working but no signal, so yes there does seem to be a problem and it seems to be software rather than hardware.

Nokia's Ovi Maps, but you phone needs to be hacked first.

cracked it!!!! ive had the same problem since owning the phone, having to always reset the phone. Open the service menu by r g r r g r then chose gps and clear data (3rd choice) then start using the gps programs again....no reset required
