Interesting tidbit....

....Qualcomm's OmniExpress truck-tracking service will use the Sprint PCS network to offer drivers and fleet operations centers messaging and other services, the companies said in November.....

Also, ..... People familiar with Bell Atlantic and GM said yesterday the companies are discussing a relationship that would add entertainment and other in-car information services to those already provided by GM's OnStar communications and navigation system. The companies declined to comment.

More QCOM mentioned.... Sprint PCS Projections

Sprint's wireless phone unit expects additional revenue of up to $3 billion over the next three years from data and automotive services and its tower business, Sprint PCS President Andrew Sukawaty said at a September 1999 conference.

The company expects to unveil automotive services within 18 months, Sukawaty said at the time, without being more specific. All that's been announced since is a partnership with Qualcomm Inc., which developed the code-division multiple access technology Sprint PCS uses.....

Very interesting IMO.
