Buddy Locating on WLANs...coming to a conference near you.

"Created in conjunction with Microsoft, OverNet Data’s software includes Buddy Locator, an application that provides the location of delegates at a conference venue to users of Pocket PC 2002 devices using the WLAN connection of a device running the software.
