wondering is there any upper bound on the error, e.g. is it possible to ever have a timing error of say 100 microsecond seconds.

that would correspond to a 30 km error
yes, 1m for every 3.3ns error, we all know that.

the problem is those GPS vendors only provide long term average error for their products, there is upper bound guarantee at all.
