Well, not so wonderful. It seems to work ok for indoor mapping, but
seem to get rather confused when faced with an outdoor environment.
Results are far from usable. As I walked around the loop, the order
of the access points seem to be in the correct order, but the found AP
locations are useless.

I was thinking the problem might be the laptop, so I tried a total of
3 XP laptops with similar results. This plot was generated on an Asus
eee PC 701.

I also created similarly useless results with multiple AP's at my
house. If I walked in a circle, the results were similar to the
photo. However, if I followed the instructions, and sorta walked in a
semi-drunken manner, with lots of cross-over points, the plots looked
more like in the examples.
