Hello there, I've just found about yahoo's fire eagle and it seems to be a great tool for location services

But I'm struggling to find is it's indeed possible to retrieve users location without any input just like one of the apps listed on their gallery which is the http://mapme.at/ app where you can see the "We think you are here:" words right on the first page and it guesses properly your current location.

I've got the API and created one app from fireeagle developer area but I still can't mimic the same behaviour, is this a possible thing to do through fireeagle, or they're using some third party software like geoip in there? Thanks
