Google Maps gets GPS-like capabilities

 Looks like Google Maps for Mobile has gotten a nice new feature in the latest update, namely a psuedo-GPS capability that allows the handset to determine your location to within a hundred feet or so using cell tower triangulation. Although you won't be able to pinpoint where you're at you can get a good idea, as long as you're in range of the cell network. Another nice bonus is that it's not as battery intensive as true GPS and it's faster to determine your position than true GPS.
