Talk about field testing :-) Thanks for the follow up. Just as an update, I was able to upload a photo ... from my desk at work. I have Wi-Fi turned off so that Google doesn't cache my location every 5 seconds. Maybe forcing it through 3G allows the login to work? Why would that make a difference? -- [[User:Jevanyn|Jevanyn]] 14:34, 3 May 2011 (EDT) | Talk about field testing :-) Thanks for the follow up.
