not so amazing, simply clever

Maybe no WAAS in Europe but we have EGNOS (European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) that can also improve the position accuracy

Amazing - cell phones better than satellites

How on Earth can a cell phone provide sub-meter resolution in position with GPS when GPS only provides typical values of 2.5m accuracy? WAAS can push that to 0.9m, but WAAS is not available outside of North America AFAIK.

It takes more than a good antenna to get good GPS position accuracy.

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
