Thanks to Nokia Siemens Network and Telkomsel (Indonesia’s biggest mobile telecommunication provider) on your kindness to provide the location based service in Indonesia. What this deal mean to consumers?

Bunch of service of course. Here are some examples (via Wikipedia);

1. Requesting the nearest business or service, such as an ATM or restaurant
2. Locating your lost children or elderly parents on a map displayed on your mobile phone
3. Receiving alerts, such as notification of a sale on gas or warning of a traffic jam
4. Finding a friend

Wow, looks like Indonesian will soon entering the future. But there is one question to be answered by Telkomsel though. How much all this service will cost their customers?

Disclaimer: I am one of their 50 million customers!
