Since we bring our cell phones with us all the time, they represents where we are. Besides the keys, the cell phone is the second thing that people will bring out of their homes.

For example, when people walk in the department stores, they will receive the sales advertising on their cell phones in the future. Or when people go into a bar, they can see the menu on their cell phones. I believe that the LBS will be valuable to the wireless carriers as well.
