I am developing a webapp ( www.mylatlong.com ). The webapp is a fairly simple one that uses the standard javascript geo location api library at http://code.google.com/p/geo-location-javascript/ .
I have observed that the first time the page is displayed the lat/long is usually in the ballpark, say within 5 miles. Then if you refresh the page the location is usually spot on.
I was wondering if any other developers have seen a similar problem with the location services and if there is a reliable way to always display the spot on position (I think that one is coming off the GPS in the iPad 3G).
Thanks in advance.
