Thus, the remote user would learn where the phone has been and where it might go next. 2) If GPS service is temporarily unavailable (e.g., indoors) the last known GPS location should be informed. (I guess Guardian probably does this). 3) For phones that lack GPS support, the same location and tracking features should be available, but using the GSM antenna information instead (the way Google Maps does it, for example). If the GSM antenna information is available but not the real location of that antenna, then the antenna ID should be returned (so as to inform the police, for example). Also, some PC-based application could be developed in order to feed the GSM antenna info into Google Maps.

Just to see what happens, i tried my n95 8GB with a BL-5F. It lasted just over two hours. Whereas the BL-6F can make nearly a whole day. So.. I dont think this thing is worth the money. I'd rather stick with my n95-8g.. for now anyway :) hi. i just looked up things on forum nokia or somewhere and i found this:
