Audio Jack Sampling Rate?

Here's another approach:
Why not use two freerunner on different locations which do have one ir
input attached. They synced the clock with ntp and both of them save the
time difference between mic and ir data. You know the exact location of
both and you could sync the data over wlan/gprs and calculate the
resulting position.

Just an idea i have when reading this thread. :)
