What I'm looking for is an app (for iPhone 3g) similar to Erica Sadun's findme (iLoJack, Erica's Site) except that it can leverage the 3g's AGPS to get accurate coordinates. Basically the app is a command line tool (preferably a small app which can just be scp'd to /bin or /sbin and be done with) which when executed prints the current latitude and longitude of the iPhone. (Erica's tool outputs in XML, but it doesn't really matter). I looked around the filesystem to see if there was a device file which could be read and parsed to get GPS data ( I'm used to linux and bsd systems where this is a commonplace method of interfacing with hardware ) but could not find one.

Any help is appriciated greatly. Thanks in advance.

Did you look at iLocalis (Cydia)?

it's not roll-your-own like Erica's solution. It's all done for us.

The reason I wanted to have this isn't theft protection, but to use in a cronjobbed shell script to work with a small web script i've written =\
It is close to what I want, though the extra features kind of scare me 0.o also it looks as if it requires a subscription donation and if I were to pay for this (which at this point, if offered a reasonable price I probably would seriously consider paying someone to develop this) it would need it to work exactly as I needed.

Thanks though.
