Cell Tracking for Google Maps for Mobiles
Using mobile phone mast IDs to work out your position to within 1/2 mile or so has been added to Google Maps for Mobiles.
So Blackberry users without GPS devices can use to find out rough location - handy if lost in a foreign city.

Read about this yesterday. The Youtbue demo of it was very amusing (going to London for a curry 
). Very handy for the iPhone too as it doesn't have GPS.
