I just posted some code at http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/web/mock_provider.zip that implements a mock location provider. This runs entirely in the emulator, so it should work across all platforms. It allows you to specify a set of coordinates and will the just loop through them forever. This could easily be adapted to read data from a file, URL, etc. As Stefan points out on http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_frm/thread/2b71c14f34dd8788 , its important to set the time value on the Location you pass to the location service. If a new Location has the same time value as the previous one the LocationManager received, the location won't be updated.
You should be able to compile this, install it on the emulator, run it, and then see the location change in Maps application. Hopefully this puts it all together and resolves issues that many have been encountering.
