GPS, a true service enabler
While most location services completely depending on mobile network functionality have failed, it seems GPS (and A-GPS) with its much higher precision, and now much lowered cost, seems to generate a slew of new services. What services will actually generate money is another story, but this is clearly an area of innovation right now. Here are a few new examples:

Rogers Wireless Launches GPS Navigator Service

Hemisphere GPS Innovation Wins FinOvation Award and Establishes Two New Patents

Using GPS to track those cheatin' hearts

New GPS Software Designed for Use at Ski Resorts
