WAAS is more accurate than non-WAAS, especially for the altitude data. The only thing you loose with 1HZ is less frequent position data updates which might cause a slight lag in the tablet display of your position, unless you are using it for pseudo attitude data also. Then the attitude display might be a bit jumpy?
I personally have not seen a significant position delay issue in my IPad with a 1 hz update rate.

I just purchased a BT-Q818XT then after reading that waas may not be supported in 10hz mode I emailed Qstarz and asked.
Here was their reply:
WAAS will only be supported at 1 Hz mode
So my question is which mode is likely to deliver superior performance in the plane - waas and 1hz or 10hz non-waas?
An additional question would be which bluetooth GPS receivers (if any) deliver waas at 10hz?
