I understand you need to have a GPS unit to use this properly but someone told me that it will get your location based on netwrok signal. Is this correct and how does it work? It has that option in the menu but does not seem to work on my phone.
 
If it's anything like the Look4me service, it would prove pretty useless for pinpointing your position accurately on a map. The Look4me service had my correct position out by at least a kilometer. I suppose it really depends on if it is using proper triangulation or some type of approximation of distance from your handset to the closest cell tower. GSM Localization
