The latest seeded version of Mac OS X 10.6, AKA Snow Leopard, is said to include some tasty treats for developers. One being the inclusion of CoreLocations, a fancy little feature adopted from the iPhone. CoreLocation allows developers to ID a Macs current latitude and longitude based on available information. We believe it works by harnessing the combined dream powers of unicorns and puppy dogs, but AppleInsider.com seems to think other wise.
Instead of using a GPS signal like the iPhone 3G, CoreLocation would use the existing network hardware to triangulate your Mac's current location. If anything, this feature would provide the perfect excuse to use "I am triangulating your location right now," in causal conversation. You'll be one Kevlar vest away from being a Navy Seal Black Ops agent.
Along with helping you train to be apart of a secret reconnaissance task force, Snow Leopard might also be able to bring you one step closer to thinking you have a tablet MacBooks. Mac OS X 10.6 is said to have some Multi-Touch framework magic included to help developers to create some helpful apps that would support the Multi-Touch trackpad. Support for these API's seem to be on the rise with developers, but nothing steady or solid has been shown yet.
