First LBS Application

Last night I was pretty productive with the iPhone SDK. (Before my iPhone died)I wrote a quick LBS application. I'm really happy with how CoreLocation works. It's very simple to use and the possibilities are endless. Here's a screenshot (it's pretty simple though, only a UITextView):

I can't wait to see the type of apps people write with this API.

(You actually get a lot better precision in latitude and longitude from the API, i just took them out for this demo)

Hi felix, that's great! What happens in the Aspen simulator when you run the code?

The latest version of the Aspen sim will give you a static latitude and longitude centered in California.

Hi Felix,
Can you share the core location demo please? I have tried to do the same to implement CoreLocation in my application and I am not that lucky.
