I would say 'no' to that. The majority of applications / sites using this will
be for
mobile devices and as such you will be using your mobile operators IP address.
My
'mobile IP' is in Buckingham, about 300miles from my actual location! Not
useful at
all, unless you live in Buckingham!

(sorry for the late reply, google changed issue notification)
Its right you can't really rely on IP addresses at all. Good examples are
blackberry
devices and Opera Mini where the traffic goes through proxies located in canada
or
norway.
And for other mobile providers it might put you where the headquarter of the
organization is located.
Makes sense?
