Hello Matthias:

I would like to implement your plugin to my search system. My question
is how do I implement it for Sweden? I mean where do I get the
postioning code from? Also is there any relation between GEOIP and GEO
Position? Can I guess my client is comming from a postion X in Sweden
based on his IP address and serve the results that are near by him
(i.e. hotel close to his town) offcourse he probably is not searching
for hotel close to his town but just an example.

Any feedback would be appreciated.
Cheers
Zaheed
