MaxMind provides a free IP->City database
http://www.maxmind.com/app/geolitecity

A web interface to the pay-for database is available:
http://www.maxmind.com/app/locate_ip

A query for 132.214.200.120 gives:
Hostname: 132.214.200.120
Country Code: CA
Country Name: Canada    
Region: QC
Region Name: Quebec
City: Québec
Postal Code: g1k9h5
Latitude: 46.8000
Longitude: -71.2500
ISP: Tele-Universite
Organization: Tele-Universite
Metro Code:
Area Code:

The actual latitude/longitude is, according to Google Maps:
46.786632/-71.280305. That's a pretty good match.
