Snow Leopard added Location Services to the Mac. Current Mac hardware
doesn't include built-in GPS capability, of course, so Location
Services relies on detection of local wi-fi hotspots. In big cities,
that's reportedly pretty good. There aren't any big cities where I
come from, however, so coverage is pretty sparse and it's hard for me
to test this code. The nearby Dartmouth College campus is well
covered, however, so I know it works.
If you're interested in playing with Location Services on a Mac, I've
posted sample code and a free test application to my Web site at <http://www.quecheesoftware.com/Quechee_Software/Lucubrator.html
>. I'm interested in (private) feedback on how well it works where
you are.
