Pegasus News’ iPhone 3G App is Time-and-Location Centric


The big battle for the local eye-balls and ad dollars will very closely parallel the timelines for when easy to use, GPS-enabled mobile devices like the new iPhone become mainstream. The mobile/media industry has been waiting for over a decade to reach this point and now thanks to Apple I think we’re finally now in the home stretch.

Lower priced GPS-enabled, easy to use devices + the almost now standard all you can eat data plans = always on, heavy usage data consumption.

I’m convinced that the investment Pegasus and other aggressive locally focused media companies and application developers make now (see story) with their iPhone apps to learn and own this space will pay big dividends over the long haul.

It will be really exciting to see the different applications available when the iPhone App Store goes live in the next few days. Game On!
