Well, everything is explained in your cited wiki page and here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_to_first_fix

I myself do not use AGPS at all (usually there is no network connectin where I use GPS) and I get fix during some minutes. If it is "cold" or "factory fix" then the time could be up to 12.5 minutes, otherwise less. And it is "anywhere on or near the Earth where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites" :) How many satellites are visible are shown for example in a program "GPS Recorder" ;)

I have same problem, Just turning on Skype with location setting enabled, used to work. I sometimes had problems overseas using supl.nokia.com so changed to supl.google.com for satisfaction. But now, neither work and GPS fix just says 'searching...'

I am using CSSU thumb which was recently updated, so first suspect is did the update break something?

supl.nokia and supl.google are both confirmed not working with N900 now. one has to find another free supl server, or just disable AGPS, and rely on the GPS to work on its own.

No, it has nothing to do with any update, CSSU, or Thumb. It doesn't work anywhere, even PC (not sure about Androids)

Unfortunately I need to confirm this (despite my first post in this thread from beginning of July).
Could definitely have something to do with latest Google changes regarding their CAs...

Using Skype with location setting enabled, I noticed the constantly blinking dish icon just some weeks ago. So I'd rather doubt that probs are caused by Googles PKI. Last root certificate changes for supl.google.com were in mid 2011 (from Thawte to Equifax/Geotrust).

As supl.google.com has stopped working with N900 I started searching for other supl servers, unfortunatly there are not many around. I found

supl.vodafone.com
supl.sonyericsson.com
sls1.sirf.com

seemingly to be active. With supl.vodafone.com my dish icon stopped blinking after some minutes, so I'm fine with this. Didn't check the others for location data, just for propper TLS responses .

@disappear: I've never used Sygic. I only use the stock Maps application which is good enough for my needs. I'm not a heavy maps/GPS user anyway.

I do have Mappero, but have never really needed to use it.

This response was not expecting,most of users(n900) with pleasure used sygic,because with sygic we don't need from wifi or 3g connection,but if you have no limited network traffic,yes i see reason why nokia maps is alternative,however

Did you read earlier posts? No network connection is needed to get a GPS fix. It can only accelerate it. ;)
