Getting location info from cell tower

Hi,
  I have noticed that in a lot of networks across the globe, GSM towers
transmit their location as a string indicating a locality. I believe this is
a cell broadcast service - though I'm not too sure about that. Can anyone
tell me whether this information can be obtained from FSO or through any
other method?
  An how do I obtain this? I'm looking at showing this info on launcher's
homescreen.
Thanks
