I'm trying to understand the syntax in the Kindle syslog file. From my deciphering, it looks like the sample syslog file identifies both the Kindle location and the cell tower location. It appears that the Kindle has recorded a connection with a cell tower at the "HDR Lat/Long" coordinates -- I used cellreception.com to identify a cell site owned by Nextel, probably leased to Sprint -- and the device coordinates locating the Kindle to a point near 20450 Stevens Blvd., in Cupertino, CA.

Does this makes sense? Can someone capture and post a similar logfile?

Code:
