There are other location services around, but i've not seen any support in n8x0.
Is there any support? any ideas?

I hope so!!!, this is a great thing.
Bye!!

Text, phone or IM your friends. Ask them where they are. If they don't tell you, they probably don't want you to know. ;)

And that's about 98%... ;)

It seems to be exactly the same as Nokia Friend View:

There was a thread about Friend View here and why it (or something like it) wasn't released for the tablets.

I've always liked the idea of such services.

Interesting service, I just tried it out with a few friends. It's certainly a signal towards something we will be seeing a lot more in the future. I'm personally very much amused that about 50% of all phone calls tend to start with "Hey, where are you?" There's something there indeed.

...

But the real question is:

What does this mean for Microsoft or Nokia Or Linux? :confused: :eek: :(

Re: Google Latitude
 

Well Jabber (e.g. the default IM client on the devices) supports location reporting, and something like GeoClue (or the upcoming Nokia replacement) could provide the location information. I hope this feature is included out-of-the-box in Fremantle.

Could we use this as an enemy finder?
