  • Clock – Why can’t the time zone for my clock be set automatically to which time zone I’m in.
  • Weather – I want the default display to be the weather of my current location.

    I’d agree except do you _really_ want to be clicking the dialog all the time saying it’s okay the app uses the location services?

    True, I still haven’t figured out the correct mental model for the GPS dialog. The default camera app uses GPS but it seems to save your preference for some period of time…

    At least as of 3.0, the iPhone clock does adjust its time zone setting automatically. I don't know if it uses GPS location services or if it somehow gets the information from the GSM network, but it does it.

    Likewise, OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) now has a Location Services feature built-in (probably based on WiFi access points) and will offer to use it to automatically determine the appropriate time zone.

    The last extra thing I would love to see reviewed reports of quality traffic. Whatever the cause, in general TomTom looks very bad on the traffic problems are really – like a snow day he wants to take me in a way that I know is rampant, and a couple of times he took me on a road with heavy structures backup when I knew there was a better way through.

    Yeah that is right that the iphone is one of the leading brand on the world of the mobile phones. I think it should definitely have the GPS integration because most of the brands are now offering it at the very cheap rates and so it also should be there.
