   mobile LBS == mobile navigation ++ ?
   
   One example here.
   
   The US VZW also provides lots of mobile location-based services. One of them is called navigation services. it is about $5+ per month. However, as you know, the GPS service itself is free to public and a GPS receiver is as low as $200 with a pretty decent screen and airtime charge. (More decent than a mobile phone.) It is really difficult for me to choose the VZW navigation service instead of buying a GPS receiver. On the other hand, the VZW GPS is a A-GPS/AFLT based hybrid solution under the tight control of the operator. If you travel out of the VZW network coverage, you will be out of luck. However, with a standalone GPS receiver, you have no problem

   Strange enough, I have read the similar news many times these days. Is there any relationship between the new iphone debut and this? Suddenly mobile LBS starts flying.
   
   btw, share a mobile lbs tutorial here too.
