For something that would be a little more interesting, you could use the
accelerometers for this, as well.  I don't know how accurate they are,
but they would certainly work even indoors for determining distance
moved.  The problem, here would be getting a high enough and accurate
enough time strobing in order to come up with a reasonably accurate
distance. 

This would be closer to "extremely complex" than the GPS, but still
fairly trivial from a top-down view.
