[mono-android] Introducing the Xamarin Mobile API Preview

No as not all of the platforms allow you to make a distinction between the
WiFi locations and the GPS, so on platforms that do (like Android) we're

The numbers you are seeing after it has lost its signal are most likely
from the wifi location system, you can filter out positions that are
too inaccurate for your use based on Position.Accuracy.
