The statement "there are presently not enough location-based systems to make this a viable technology" is incorrect. There are already a number of location-based systems in place for m-commerce, including GPS, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. A lack of location-based systems is not a barrier to location-based m-commerce. Rather, the main barriers are technical limitations like limited wireless bandwidth and accuracy issues with location technologies, as well as consumer concerns about privacy.
