Microsoft checks out LBS
Microsoft Research explores location technologies is really about applying GPS to different scenarios, not about new technologies per se, except for the health information reporting scenario.
All the scenarios mentioned have been done and/or are offered commercially by others, but I guess/hope Microsoft has things in the lab that they don't mention. Especially considering 700 people are working on this. It would otherwise probably have been less costly to buy a few start-ups.
