MapPoint Location Service on my XDA

I'm currently evaluating MapPoint Location Server with location information on my M1000 XDA II.  It's a bit spooky being able to be located by my colleagues, who think I'm in the supermarket in our area, instead of working from home.  The triangulation puts the service about 1/2km from where I actually am (I live in the countryside without too many mobile phone masts around).  But the really great feature is being able to put a location into the service, then getting directions from where I am now to where I want to go.  Very impressive indeed..

I assume this needs to work with your mobile provider?

I'm in the UK, and use Orange as my mobile provider. I think Sprint in the US can do this, along with Bell Canada.
