Oh, is that the next phase of Maps, then? Get updates about foot traffic within the office?

the reason for the success of Waze lies in its de-centralized, community-driven approach – something that's just the opposite of The Apple Way(tm).
Since Waze gets over 1/2 of it's data from Android phones how would this play for Apple?
Yes, do it now! Waze is absolutely amazing.
really...so Waze doesnt store its data in a centralized host server environment?
and how is their crowd-sourced data a different philosophy than the crowd-sourced data found in iOS maps? or google's?
Not to mention that WAZE was developed by former Apple employees. So they already know the Apple way, I think they should buy them, but keep a free app on Android, And make one for Windows.
Another free and open service to be destroyed and reshaped according to Apple's mentality? I hope not.
I hope not. I do not want Apple to ruin another good thing!
much like what google did to sparrow, snapseed...etc right?
I much prefer the idea of Apple getting Foursquare's data. To me, the downside with Apple maps has been the utter lack of results when searching. Addresses and driving within the greater Toronto area have been just fine. Not saying don't improve that since it seems to be the pain point for many, but for points of interest (restaurants, stores, etc) nothing has been better than gMaps but Foursquare could easily topple that.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.... because that probably means they will kill this awesome app/service. You, bastards! :/
