	Well... the MaxMind demo of "my IP" did get the proper metropolitan
area... But they list the ISP as "AT&T"... My real ISP is Earthlink
(piggybacking on AT&T DSL service).

	The Lat/Long, however shows as 

42.9634 -85.6681
whereas a recent GPS readout shows
42.9159 -85.5541

or 2m50s too far north, and 6m50s too far west.

	Same website, accessed from my Blackberry phone, gave a result of
"United States, NA" and location 38 -97
