DxO launched PL8 today, it can be downloaded now.
I'm sure it will be needed to support the R1, but I'll wait until the Black Friday discount to upgrade.

Not entirely correct, in my experience. AGPS still knows where you just as accurately as normal GPS, and the data is able to be recorded as something like GPX. The problem with AGPS is it uses the internet to render the map within the OS. Its not generally an issue if you use an app which is able to download apps.

First image with R5ii processed with DxO. RF 200-800mm. Out on my bike today when a Kestrel appeared. Just had one shot at 1/500s as I didn't have time to set the camera for BIF before the bird turned. 100% crop.

That’s not what AGPS is, it has nothing to do with maps. See the ‘operation’ section in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assisted_GNSS

Well in that case, the phones I have (pixel 8 and iPhone 13 Pro) perhaps use both AGPS and have a proper GPS chip inside, because they work with no SIM card or signal at all. I suppose they could be pinging cell towers, and they don’t work with aeroplane mode on. Perhaps they’re just AGPS after all. So thank you for the info, I stand corrected.
I was under the impression I was correct with my first response to you.

I got my BG-R20 in the mail today. I was incredibly surprised to find that it does not in fact, have an airflow port. I thought the whole point of it existing was because Canon didn't want to block off the port on the baseplate of the camera :/

I've been to place where my A-GPS phone couldn't get a fix, but that has been over 15 years ago, so hopefully things have changed for the better. I can always put the GP-E2 in logging mode, if needed

I seem to recall that it was posted that the RFii didn't charge through the USB when turned on. Anyway, it does. Could be useful in many circumstances, including sitting a hide with just one LP-E6P but with a small charging block.
I've posted elsewhere but here for the record, the AF with the RF 200-800mm seems significantly improved for speed and consistency of AF. The AF of the RF 100-500mm is so good on the R5 that improvement wouldn't be noticed in anything I do.
