Edit* Actually they were the correct ones, just that the maps are not up to date for that area would appear. You can search for it on Google though and these are the co-ords they give you :)

The newspaper I read today in the morning printed a schematic of the 'mansion' where Bin Ladin hid. It rather resembled a castle. Three meter walls and barbwires, the house has just a few windows. Even on the google earth/maps image you see that the compound is bounded not just by a fence but by solid walls.

One of the reports I listened to said that the design was poor to protect the occupants because there was too much room inside the walls allowing choppers to land inside the walls and catch the occupants completely by surprise.
