Bad accuracy

Bugreport for Sports Tracker

Accuracy is not good:
E.g. walking workout, according to Sportstracker max speed was 34.3 km/h!
In reality it was 12 or 13 km/h.
Also the route went on a lake. Of course, I don't have the ablility to walk over waters :) :)
From start to midpoint 6,6 km and back the same route 7,2km...

Driving workout, according to Sportstracker max speed was 158 km/h
In reality it was 90 km/h.

It stores the points about once in a minute. It should do so let's say every 10 seconds.
The points are not accurate. The calculated point can differ from the real place 50m.
I have version 2.06, phone is N95 8GB.

I don't have noticed it so much in total distance, I wonder if that is because I have increased GPS filtering. But max speed for every trip, and especially altitude always nearly as soon as I start the exercise.

If I increase the value on sliding average (forgot what you call it in NST, and don't have it with me) I can filter out and view the graphs without the random peaks, the sudden variations, but that is a setting that (unfortunately) is gone next time I start sportsracker.
