Incidentally, if you just type a distance into the box and hit enter it doesn't work, you need to click the Go link. That's because I didn't know how to create a form button that didn't just submit the form - it needs to do some Javascript magic first.
The fixed-width renders badly, and clicking [Go] gives me a 404 on /david/private/search.cgi
Got myself a little more informed now and read the source. Looks like this means navigator.geolocation doesn't work in Android's browser, and you have to do some Google Gears-specific nastiness to get the geolocation.

Looks at the sample app, it doesn't look difficult and would be pretty easy to handle both methods: http://code.google.com/apis/gears/samples/hello_world_geolocation.html
And it looks like someone has already done the legwork to make it work both ways: http://ajaxian.com/archives/navigatorgeolocation-using-the-w3c-geolocation-a...
