Your company? There's an app for that.

We tend to forget that the iPhone is still from the future in a way that most of the other devices on the list above aren't. It will take time for device makers to make up that difference.

great article from Kottke on iPhone and other mobile devices!

Google Latidute, reliable?

 

Last week-end I was in Francavilla al Mare (Chieti, Italy) for the second italian's BeachCamp and it was one of the few times that actually me and a bunch of friends were in the same place (or nearby).

This screenshot of the friend's map on my iPhone was taken while we all four were drinking a cold beerd under the same umbrella at Lido Venus in via Treste, with 3 of us updating their place on the a-GPS of our devices {for the record 2 iPhone 3G, 1 iPhone 3Gs, 1 Nokia e71} ... 

The image was taken just after the GPS update and shows how the service, at least in Italy, isn't really too reliable ...

Ideas on the possible causes ?
