Not only do they send you the make model number license plate and drivers name, you also get a map showing the drivers location and yours. You see him/her approaching on the map.

The map is an important innovation by UBER (and Lyft). You don't mind a wait nearly as much if you can see where your ride is. You can see that the ride is coming (or not) when he/she is stopped in traffic etc.
