Default location manager for Mac OS X

On last night's show, Jason Snell talked about the lack of the location manager in OS X. Here is a product that brings this function back to OS X. I really don't have a need for this feature but I guess there are plenty of people who do. The interesting thing that took my eye was the four mouse rating from Macworld magazine at the top of the Location X web page. I guess this was from the artice Macworld did back in July 2003 "Mac Gems" http://www.macworld.com/2003/07/reviews/macgems/

Yes, there are third parties for fascinating alternatives to things that Apple should have done.

Listeners, I will be sitting in the press box at next month's WWDC to see what magic Apple has for us for 10.5.

If you folks have a wish list, let me know and I'll set up a topic forum for this board.
