Personal use of multi-media information, in-travel entertainment/communication, way-finding navigation, and smartcard payments/entry systems are important components of a modern public transport service. The evolution of the iPad/iPhone point the way to the future travel companion - incorporating all these services.

The mass appeal of such interactive services is established, reducing boredom, anxiety, and uncertainty, states of mind often associated with travelling. With investment in the underlying databases, technology can provide an interactive, multi-modal brokerage service enabling travel choices to be presented in real time with bookings or connections confirmed en route. This will extend to the booking of shared taxis, or hired club-cars or bicycles at key hubs.
