Latitude and Longitude using cell tower triangularization in iPhone?

I know how to find Latitude and longitude using the CLLocationManager class,but this needs a GPS for getting those values.But,there are also instances where GPS signals may not be recieved.

So,at that time i want to find the latitude and longitude values using cell tower triangularization method in the iPhone application is that possible.

Please anybody guide me how to implement this...

CLLocationManager will first use triangulation then will try to get a GPS signal. You can't really tell whether the coordinates are based on triangulation or GPS, the vertical offset could give you information.

This is why CLLocationManager will even work on the iPad Wi-Fi only, it will try and triangulation via Wi-Fi.
