Would you want this to work like Android's Enable Location?
Tap Internet > Menu > More > Enable Location

Then for instance a websites like Google could give results based on your location if you search for a restaurant, etc.?

well, thats kinda already in the phone, is it not? I was thinking more along the lines of a patch for the browser to allow for HTML5 geolocation. but if a switch works too, that is works for me
