Google gives location on your phone without GPS

Google is updating its Google Maps for Mobile with a new location finder feature that allows users to find their location even though they don't have a GPS chip in their device. The My Location feature, which is available as a beta, helps the more than 85 percent of handsets that don't have GPS functionality.
