The third-party native iPhone application that provides pseudo-GPS for the Apple’s handset users, Navizon, has been upgraded and now works with firmware versions 1.0.2 and 1.1.1. Aside from the enhanced positioning algorithms, the new version of Navizon adds Buddy Finder functionality, allowing iPhone users to add their friends to Buddy list and then see where they are on a map.
Adding a friend is quite easy, and all it requires is that you enter your and your friend’s email address and take it from there. Now, you’ll be able to share your whereabouts with the people you want — or remain private if that’s your intent… More information and download instructions are available from Navizon’s blog.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
