Bah, doesn't even work properly. It takes the location way too soon, before it even gets a GPS lock. It constantly shows me at some place downtown, almost 2km from my house. This is the same location that the Maps app shows when I first fire it up, which I imagine is just the quick/rough location it gets immediately from using cell tower data. The Maps app takes a few seconds, finally gets some GPS data, and then shows my location at home. But Latitude seems to just do a quick query of my location and accepts the first bit of data it gets from location services, and no longer communicates with location services, and says I'm at that highly inaccurate location. Practically useless.

Is it just me, or did iPhone users get the short end of the stick ?
