When he looked for a Starbucks? In what country? In the US the navigation
algorithm is a 1-liner: walk 50 feet.

I have not seen the actual keynote video, but in the MacRumors live blog it
seemed as Steve Jobs said "it knows where you are" or something when he
looked for a Starbucks. But no specific mention of how it knew that.
