Saw this today and suddenly discovered what we need to be focusing on.....
The word is out that in this case MapInfo and its Oracle 8i PDA technology
is a year ahead of ESRI and the others for 2.5G+ infrastructure and mobile
mapping. Also I heard that the fastest growth for the under 25 crowd over
Japan's DoCoMo are phones with cameras for wireless instant photography!
Next will be spatial photos.

Kirvan Pierson, MapInfo's Beijing-based territory manager for the greater
China region, said: "When you know where somebody is, and what's around
them, you can tailor and offer services personalized for them." AT&T, Sprint
and MCI of the United States, Australia's Telstra, Japan's NTT DoCoMo, and
all five of Britain's mobile-service operators are using MapInfo's
Java-based solutions, but there are no telecoms companies providing
location-based services in Hong Kong or greater China.
Happy New Year
