"Locate me" not working?

I was unable to get the Locate Me to work in the Google Map app (well and other location based apps as well for that matter)

It just keeps on spinning and no location is ever found (shows the last map I looked at) - re-boot did not help.

Any suggestions?

iMac 24" Alu 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Extreme, 4GB SDRAM, 1TB (Mid 2007), Mac OS X (10.5.4), iPod Touch 16GB 2.0

i called apple in cupertino california for help and they suggested me to restore it as a new ipod which resulted pretty uncomfortable for me because it deleted all the notes, contacts, alarms, and everything but keeping the 2.0 update. it improved its operation but still having trouble. the term exposed above was also ought to a frostbite of my ipod for more than 24 hours. i hope it help, though it will show a notable difference after the restorement. you'll probably be forced to keep on restoring it every month i know that ***** but thats the best i could do after trying everything and called apple support.
i hope it could help

UPDATE: It is still not working for me. I have reset my router and my cable modem. Nothing has changed. I really hate this since I have other apps that are dependent on Google maps locating me. No word on a fix or anything from Apple, this isn't a widespread problem, therefore, it doesn't exist for Apple only us.
