I am testing GPS-based Situations, but I have some doubts about its power efficiency, as well.
Wlan is generally not as power hungy as Bluetooth as scanning is much much faster even in crowded environments. But the impact is surely non-zero

GPS condition updates the location in practice continuously, so it eats as much power as if Maps application was on. As many other features, this might also be optimized in the future...
