I seem to remember reading somewhere that the redundancy of the GPS system is falling to critical levels due to the disruption of the satellite renewal programme caused by the space shuttle problems. Each satellite (if I remember correctly) is built with triple redundancy, but several are now operating without any redundancy at all and so could fail at any time. Could this be an issue?
