Verizon announced yesterday that they are planning to pursue a network-based
solution, using companies like Allen, US Datacomm, and True Position. This will be
interesting: it seems to me the network solution is less expensive, while the GPS
solution is more accurate.
The other carriers were required to file with the FCC yesterday, but by my
understanding were not required to make their decisions public.

Today's WSJ news indicate that Sprint PCS will go for the chip approach.
So each phone under their serverice in US will have a GPS chip sitting
inside to send out the location information.
Now, there are still an arry of other telecom unclear about their
exact deployment to conform FCC E9111 requirement. How about Verizon?
AT&T Wireless? Voice Stream? Bell South, Pacific Bell? Nextel?....etc
Anyone?
