Indeed. My wife an I were traveling in Brazil and her MBP was stolen. We located the computer near Sao Paulo (and it was stolen in Maceio!) and talked to a computer repair guy who admitted to having it (though he ostensibly had "just given it back to the owner") even though it was just listed on the local equivalent of CL. Of course the police wouldn't do anything... not that I blame them-- I certainly couldn't expect them to go searching some random LAN shop... So this kind of location information is probably only useful for locating devices that are held by people who want you to have them back (ie you left it at a party or somethign).
