"Accurate map data is the foundation for the most useful, and used, LBS applications. Our superior processes and technologies ensure our maps and points of interest are up-to-date, and are the driving forces behind our continued dominance in the wireless market. We look forward to working with TeleNav to bring the convenience and benefits of location services to the masses."
