ss9173: Good digging. Just thinking off the top of my head regarding your comment, if they (NextBus) were to work deals w/ every major city to put a "NextBus" barcode on the bus stop and/or bus schedule pamphlets, the user could just scan the barcode (using PC of course ;) to get not only the "static" scheduled time of arrival but also the "real" time of estimated arrival.

I wonder what, if anything, would hinder them from doing the same for other public means of transportation; planes, trains, ferries, etc...

Wouldn't that be great...just scan your ticket barcode and instantly see how late your plane will be. Easy, no-hassle, great for business travelers, IMO.
