Which of the locations is wrong on the second (browserspy) link?

The IP based map should show that same location as whatismyipaddress.
The Geolocation Based Map is empty for me (Latitude is undefined; Longitude is undefined) and may only work properly if you use a wireless connection to a known hotspot.
