Updated:2008/2/26 14:19
US operator Alltel Wireless has launched its LBS Nationwide Roaming service. Alltel Wireless customers with GPS-capable handsets can now use any of Alltel''s navigation and location based applications nationwide. In addition to the existing network, Alltel LBS applications will now function in more than 45 major metro areas with standard roaming charges apply. Alltel currently offers a suite of GPS applications including TeleNav GPS Navigator and Alltel Navigation. Alltel also offers Axcess Family Finder, a service that enables parents to determine the location of their child''s Axcess Family Finder-capable phone from the web or their mobile phone. LBS Nationwide Roaming will also provide control to businesses with mobile workforces, as Alltel''s TimecardGPS application will now work coast-to-coast. The application enables users to track an employee''s location, record shift time and capture job or work order information from LBS-enabled mobile phones.
