Hi There,
this is very much dependent from your provider, your PDA/cell phone and the
network. For GSM networks in Europe e.g. the providers have different types
of information available through the CB channels of their base stations.
This data can always be read and stored in your SMARTPHONE/P

In the US, Sprint's CDMA network will do the fancy GPS+AFLT business,
but like someone else mentioned, it only sends the location data back
to Sprint's network. There is an API that you can use to access this
data for your handsets, but you have to pay some amount of money for
each location fix.

Some more recent phones have the possibility to be connected to seperate
GSM-boxes. E.g. there is a plug-in for the (older) Nokia 9210(i)/9290(i)
Communicators and most of the Symbian phones with Bluetooth support can be
connected to any Bluetooth-enabled GPS-mouse ...
