AW: Geo location to IP mapping

Hostip.info is so bad... One can find the exact location of my ip in the
ripe-database and the tool doesn't get it. It claimed that I'm in some sort
of 100souls small town altough I'm living in a major city. And hey: I was
using an ip out of a hoster's block - not a dialup or something like that.

Tssssss

Thanks for all your replies. I came across 
http://www.hostip.info/use.html, which looks good, at least 
from a API/ 
ease of use prespective.

I just tried that, says I'm 100 miles south of where I really 
am. That's quite a long way out in a small country like England.
