    Posted about this a while back, it appeared on my galaxy for a few days (and on my iphone btw) for about 3 days. Wouldn't actually let me check in.

    But it did pick up my nearest locations, and also where I was exactly, just wouldn't let me' check in' now however, it just says that its not available yet.

    Don't really see the point of it - I don't really care that all my friends seem to want to tell me everytime they are at the Gymn!

    I agree. Don't want people knowing where I am.if you want to find places near you, doesn't Google Locations do all that for you?

    Then don't use it. But for those of us that do, it has many useful applications.

    I'm sure this has been on my HTC Desire for weeks. It was definitely available last week.

    I usually check in through Foursquare, myself, but the novalty wears off!

    Give up your mobile phone too. Seriously nothing beats the hand written letter.
