yes, i broke down an bought an iPhone (i need a GSM phone for Amsterdam! I'm going to give it a week abroad to see if I'll keep it for NYC use or not)
anyway, downloaded the Navizon location-aware app and hoo-doggy, it's right on (using wi-fi triangulation... haven't tried Cell ID triangulation 'cause I aint got no SIM card yet!)
someone asked me like a week ago when the iPhone would be location-aware and my guess was end of the year... I guess I called that one wrong - ha! (anyone know if you can pull the data into other apps yet? right now all it does it show your position on a Google Map)

She got a placemark-shaped hat, in road-patterned dress with zoom-slider-shaped zipper, and Google art colored socks.
The illustration is courtesy of MIK Mikako, originally uploaded to donadona's site, the author of GoogleMapsEditor. She would allow Google Maps fans to use this one.

Peabody Place is a large entertainment/shopping center in downtown Memphis, Tennessee, which adjoins the famous old Peabody Hotel (known for it's highly-pampered ducks who are lead on processions through the place every day).
On the roof of Peabody Place is their logo and this message, "Come downtown and play."
I also mentioned this in my blog article about some of my comments on rooftop ads, and the recent interview with me in a USAToday article.
