Is there a app for this?
 
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=55781

My G/f is out of state right now, and I thought it would be interesting to just send a text to her phone and get her lat and long. It does that for this app in WM, but.. I was wondering if there was something similar that she could put on her phone to allow me to do it to her phone. Thanks for the help guys.

this should do the trick (I haven't tested it yet but it looks like it can do just what you're looking for)
http://code.google.com/p/android-pho...downloads/list

EDIT,
Just tried it out and it looks like it doesn't actually use gps coordinates but instead cell tower coordinates.
Showed my location about 2 miles off.

edit 2:
Tried again with gps on (had google maps running) and the location was spot on.
Even gave me the street address.

so i guess its great if you have the gps running in the background, but otherwise don't expect an exact location.
