Two companies have teemed up to offer a location-aware system in Japan. The user process is amazingly simple—just point at what you want. The service uses GPS enabled CDMA phones with compass orientation to grab location and info data. I would venture a guess that this solution would be improved with cell-tower triangulation (to combat the urban canyon effect of cities), to beat a dead horse.
