Real-time tracking

Here's a blog post about real-time tracking on the iPhone and they also discuss MapPoint 2004.

A quote:
"This trait started when Microsoft released MapPoint 2005, which included for the first time a clause in its terms that forbid using the application for real-time tracking of vehicles and objects, and any such tracking should have a minimum 15-second delay between reality and display"

Re: Real-time tracking

Yep, I was guessing the author meant MP04 instead of '05. I went back to '02 and notcied that when using the GPS, MP would only interrogate the receiver every 15 seconds, so that clause would have had less relevance
