I would like to know how the iPod determines my position. I was driving down town today and noticed that my iPod gave an extremely precise position in google maps. I know it's possible to determine your location using wifi (or gsm data if I connect it to my phone using ibluever) but thats not very precise. Today however my iPod wasn't connected to any wifi hotspot nor my cellphone and it was able to determine my location even more precise than some cheap gps systems. Does the iPod know my location based on the many wifi networks in my town without connecting to it?
