Google Maps And My Location
Google updated its Google Maps application adding a new feature called “My Location.” This new feature approximates your location by using the surrounding cellular towers instead of GPS data, which is often associated with such features. Google claims that it comes pretty close (approximately 1000m close, on average).
To use it simply press the “0″ button while in Google Maps. Your approximate location will be shown with a blue dot on the map.
“My Location” feature is available for most web-enabled mobile phones, including Java, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile and Nokia/Symbian devices.
