Summary:We report on a real-time transit vehicle information system which
delivers content to Internet-enabled mobile devices, such as cell
phones. The content is in the form of predicted arrival/departure times
for buses at user-selectable geographic locations within a transit
region. We discuss how the physical restrictions of such devices, e.g.,
screen size and paucity of keyboard options, influences the user
interface design. An overview of the system architecture is provided,
together with some preliminary usage results
