Got An Opinion? - I recently came accross the following statement by a fellow journalist recently... "LBS has been put on the back burner while the wireless carriers figure out how to make money from location services". Do you really think that LBS is on the back burner? "Sal Dhanani, Director Of Marketing, Televigation informs us that Televigation was the first to launch an LBS service with a major carrier last year. TeleNav, turn-by-turn navigation was launched with Nextel I October. We¡¯re are now in the process of launching another LBS app on Nextel¡¯s GPS handset that will allow in-expensive fleet tracking. By the end of the year we will probably see other carriers also launch LBS services." What's your opinion? Send comments to editor@wirelessdevnet.com
Thanks Glenn
