An apparatus for, and a method of, customizing an Internet session to the current location of the user which can, through a variety of methods, identify a users specific location and once the specific location is determined, customize Internet information for the users specific location. The location can be determined through a GPS device, user input or calculation and application of location parameters from a known position or similar methods. The customized Internet information can be accessed via, for example, CDPD, and user specific queries can be addressed through Internet search capabilities coupled with local processing.
