This is certainly a space that is heating up, Nintendo and Disney just annouced a trial to use the DS to guide kids around(search DS disney on engadge), but I can't imagine that's too open a platform. There is also a company called Flick Software who has a product, the mobile interactive guide, http://www.mobileinteractiveguide.com that seems to be a very open system for content providers and venues. They also seem to be device independant which seems like an obvious feature seeing as hardware changes and improves every 6 months..
