Mobile unit, server and method of providing information

摘要

A mobile unit capable of communication using a plurality of communication subsystems including a usability determination section to determine usability of the plurality of communication subsystems at the current location of the mobile unit. The mobile unit also includes a communication subsystem selection section for selecting a communication subsystem whereby the current location of the mobile unit can be measured with highest accuracy. A mobile telephone network communication section in the mobile device then measures the current location of the mobile unit and transmits the result of determination of usability, together with information indicating the current location, to an information provision server. Then, the mobile unit is able to look up the result of determination of usability from a plurality of mobile units that is stored in the information provision server.
