what accuracy?
The article said GPS was accurate to "a few hundred meters" while the Wi-Fi was good to 40-60 meters. FYI, a $100 GPS receiver today (since March of 2000) is good to 10 meters standard or 3 meters with WAAS enabled. Mine (used off eBay for $60) reports an accuracy of 16ft consistently, 7 ft occasionally. Even in the trees it still stays better than 30-40 ft accuracy.

Someone is being shined on, is highly uninformed, or filed a 6+ year old report.

Get it right folks!
