I dunno, what is Locale?
Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

Isn't that the android app ita ! Uses to have her phone take on certain settings based on location?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yup. It lets you switch settings and trigger certain actions based on GPS and network IDs and phone physical position (like face up or down), for instance, or calendar setting (in a meeting, etc).
No, I have no idea.

I haven't used it, but from the advertising it seems like Siri can do some of what Locale does.

I don't have Siri. I have an iPhone 4.

Suzi, from what I understand, there's something about iOS that makes that kind of functionality really difficult, if not impossible, to apply to iPhones.

Darn it. That is what I was finding too, -t. I just want it to turn on my wifi when I'm home and turn it off when I leave home. I have forgotten to turn it off and ran down my battery, so was hoping to automate.

I think there are options for that if you jailbreak, but that's beyond my scope.

Anyone who uses Dreamhost...what is this Cloudfyre thing they are using now? Should I be happy about it? Or scared?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Cloudflare, you mean? It's optional, isn't it? So I don't think there's any reason to be scared. Don't want, don't use.
