>> Call me paranoid, but I don't particularly like the idea of my operator being allowed to monitor my exact location.

The network side can certainly monitor cars moving from cell to cell
and draw conclusions about speed and likely location. I have built
differential time of arrival systems for locating Spread Spectrum
transmitters. The chipping rate of IS-95 would result in great accuracy, but
the base stations are located for coverage and not for great baselines
for location. The CSM rx ASICs are aware of the time delay from your
cell phone but, I don't know if this is tracked and merged.

Hey, molloy, quit scaring the users!
