Guess Android is still in the “over-hyped phase” hence media keeps bugging all of the founding members what’s happening. That being said, SiRF released a strange “working on it” announcement, stating they’ve started the process of “rapidly implementing key end-to-end location-enabling features” to ensure that GPS-enabled Android-powered mobile devices provide an optimal location awareness experience for consumers.
According to SiRF, they will be including such technologies as Secure User Plane Location (SUPL), a standards-based protocol that allows a mobile handset client to communicate with a SUPL Location Platform (SLP), including transport layer security (TLS) for location privacy and multiple session capabilities to provide the most compelling user experience. In addition, SiRF is also implementing support for Android-based assisted GPS (A-GPS) handsets to ensure that the Android platform passes Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) and 3GPP conformance testing for third-party certification… Full release goes on after the break.
