worldspace position without using xform

What's the easiest way to get a camera's position in worldspace without using the xform command. Keep in mind that it can be parented under other stuff so it may not have any local translation or anything.

Thanks

done it.

You can use:

$myArr = `getAttr -t $myTime $myObject.wm[0]`;
xPos = $myArray[12];
yPos = $myArray[13];
zPos = $myArray[14];

this uses the world matrix to give you the exact world space position.
