Uber does this already in NYC, Chicago, Boston, SF, and Seattle.

I've used Uber a couple times in NYC now. Biggest problems for me: It's pricey compared to a normal cab; currently Manhattan-only (for pickups); there's generally a 10-15 minute wait, in which time I generally could've caught a normal cab. But seriously, Uber is fantastic.
