Location, Location, Location

CNet reports that Google has added "My Location" to Google Map Mobile.  That is a big step towards making mobile applications real and functional.  Being location-aware is pretty much a fundamental need for mobile applications and Android promises that through its APIs, but right now absent of GPS mobile applications do not have a way to get that information - and GPS does not have a lot of adoption in the US cell phone market right now.

So it's great to see that Google is building the database to triangulate the location without GPS, something that I'm sure they are doing for Android.
