This method of local advertising is akin to businesses' use of SMS text messaging to reach nearby cell phones with discounts. I'm sure there will be much more of this in the coming years. I remember while living in China (even 4-5 years ago), I would get "welcome" SMS text messages from the network provider in big cities upon entering them by bus or train. In a sense, I could always know where I was at those times (while limited to the train-window view) just by looking at my new SMS messages. Nice observation and suggestions, Dominic.
