Hi Mark, Just had a quick look into SnowBall. Your idea to use wi-fi hotspots as well as bluetooth for more accurate location data delivery is probably the best dream the LBS might offer. I mean if you have something like LocationProvider which can return reliably the best approximated/calculated coordinates (which are calculated on the basis of last known GPS position/Cell ID/Wi-Fi Hot Spot location and Bluetooth reading from nearby phones), I would definetely start using it in my app and would definetely pay for it (as soon my app gets to real phones). It looks like you're currently building apps on top of the service, however, having something simple like "pls give me the best known locational data at the moment with the provided accuracy" as well as allowing user to configure between "less accuracy-more battery" and "more accuracy-less battery" modes is definetly kind of service that most of the LBS application developers' and end users would be interested to use, and we're not an exception here. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Challenge" group.
