iPhone and iPod touch get 1.1.4 firmware update {Engadget}
Feb 27th 2008 1:09AM Nicely spotted.
This is more likely the result of Apple/Google using an updated
version of what ever cell-tower/wifi network georeferencing database
they're using.
(I was interested and did a quick search - looks like the
company which provides the wifi location data is called Skyhook
Wireless. This information is pretty difficult to find! See:

Airport Extreme owners not happy to be left out of Time Capsule {Engadget}
Jan 21st 2008 4:46PM Just to clarify, the Airport Extreme does support wireless NAS with an attached USB disk on Leapard.
It *doesn't* currently support TimeMachine to a wireless NAS straight out of the box (which is what this article is all about).
Airport Extreme owners not happy to be left out of Time Capsule {Engadget}
Jan 21st 2008 3:52PM Yes, I hear what you're saying. But respectfully, regarding this issue - no.
I brought an Airport Exteme and USB disk for the wireless NAS functionality. Wired NAS/Wireless NAS - really, there shouldn't be a difference from an operating system and user perspective. That's the whole point! Why shouldn't it work as a Time Machine disk, network throughput issues being equal?
Is there honestly any significantly different hardware in the Time Capsule compared to an Exteme and attached disk? I don't know for sure, but I doubt it. And that's why I'm surprised as a relatively well-informed consumer when my existing hardware doesn't work with a much-touted feature for an operating system I've paid good money for.
You don't expect to have to buy a new printer with every OS release, for instance, right? The functionality comes from the OS, not the hardware.
Hopefully this'll get fixed, and per my earlier comment, there's always the hacks.
