It happens that I saw with my own eyes in a vendor's demo how a well-known 
product (and you are right on the "very expensive" part, but nowadays I seem 
to use only the "very expensive" software products) pinpointed visitors down 
to the city level. I asked the vendor how this was done and he, obviously 
unaware of the details, gave me the answer that I have mentioned. This was 
not even recent development. So I just thought it was common knowledge.

thanks and regards,

Hung Jung
