Locate Me feature comes to IPhone
Yesterday, I upgraded my IPhone to version 1.1.3. And with the upgrade a cool new feature was added to my IPhone. "Locate Me" has now been added to IPhone. It uses information from nearby wifi base stations and cell phone towers to pinpoint your location on Google Maps.
Here's an example - The image on the left (before I clicked the "Locate Me" Eye Icon) is a cool Google Maps Satellite View of Northwest Jet approaching Detroit Metro Airport. Now I click the "Locate Me" Eye Icon in the lower left hand corner of IPHONE and I get a Google Maps Satellite View of my current location (Plymouth, MI - shown in the image on the right) which is almost close to accurate (Just off by couple houses).
For more IPhone 1.1.3 features check out Gear Live.
