I’ve heard that some (or all) new BREW enabled telephones that are
offered by Verizon are able to determine GPS coordinates. The question
is: Is it possible from the BREW-based application gets your current
GPS coordinates. And if answer is yes then I need a little example or
at least some explanation that will allow me to start writing the
program that will use this functionality.

I am posting this as a comment as I do not know if it will meet
