BlackBerry Adds Advertising, In-App Transactions, Alerts And More To App Store | mocoNews
"New location services: RIM is launching three new location-based services for developers: cell site geolocation, reverse geocoding and travel time. Cell Site Geolocation is very standard today and is commonly used as an alternative to GPS. Reverse Geocoding helps people convert their location coordinates into a specific address for use in BlackBerry applications. And finally, Travel Time allows developers to incorporate estimated travel time within their apps for destinations in the US and Canada. The travel time calculations will be based on distance, speed limits and aggregated traffic conditions. The service returns values for an estimated arrival time, total travel time and total distance that can be used in an application."

This API will open up trending information that is specific to a
number of locations around the world.At a high level, there will be two new endpoints:
* an endpoint to give a listing of all locations that trends are
available for, and
* an endpoint to actually allow you to query by a specific location. "The Trends API will use Yahoo's Where on Earth IDs from yahoo.com/geo/geoplanet which I've written about here before.
