That was a big surprise for me too!  I'm particularly pleased to see an
English version of the docs!

The location service seems to be working.  When I tried it the phone
reported the place name as Ebisu (we're in Minami-Aoyama).  Although
we're not exactly in Ebisu it was kinda close.  I guess it is the
location of the nearest transmission tower.  Hopefully I can do some
more tests with that stuff in the future.
