They say they are working on the real-time calculation, as well as the accuracy. It's pretty early days for this still, so I imagine quite a few advances to come, and it may well supplement what we have right now, rather than being a standalone navigation system.
It would make sense that eventually you could do both real-time and after-the-fact calculations depending on whether real-time communications is available. Presumably it will depend on the specific application
