Dear Aunt TUAW,
I've recently become the proud owner of a 3rd generation iPod touch. I found the Nike+ app that uses some strange GPS/wifi-triangulation scheme to locate me and how far I run/walk.
How does the iPod touch do this? Is it magnets? Smoke? Mirrors? Is this a reliable location-reckoning system? There are a lot of rumors abounding on the Interwebs, and I know you'll get to the bottom of it, Auntie.
Love & tickles,
Your nephew Marc H.TUAWDear Aunt TUAW: location voodoo originally appeared on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) on Wed, 15 Sep 2010 12:00:00 EST. Please see our
