[Mike Liebhold]

Hmmm - this demands closer inspection.


"United States Patent Application 20090063293, entitled Dynamic 
Presentation of Location-Specific Information, seeks to patent "improved 
approaches to allow a portable electronic device to dynamically present 
location-specific information while the portable electronic device is at 
a predetermined location... In one embodiment, the portable electronic 
device has a display that can display the location-specific information 
and has wireless capabilities for use in receiving the location-specific 
information from the server. The location-specific information can, for 
example, augment other information that is to be presented on the 
display. In one embodiment, the location-specific information can be 
information pertaining to a media item being played in an establishment, 
such as a store, where the portable electronic device is located."
