Navizon hops on the free cell positioning bandwagon

Although Google’s My Location is probably as good as it gets, Navizon is now offering a free cell tower positioning app. Just like Google Maps, we’re looking at 1000 m accuracy on average, which isn’t great, but paired up with wi-fi, they claim that it can be chopped down to 10-30m. It’s a nice option for those BlackBerry users packing Wi-Fi and no GPS, like with the 8320 or 8120, especially if they’re in urban areas where there are plenty of cell towers around.
