FreeMobile411

Local mobile search and directory assistance services provider V-ENABLE announced that a full-featured, Java ME-based downloadable version of FreeMobile411 is now available to Sprint customers.

This easy to use and fast voice-enabled application allows users to simply speak what they are looking for by holding the talk key of their phone, and seeing the results displayed on the screen within seconds. Unlike most other directory assistance solutions, FreeMobile411 not only gives access to 140 million residential and 14 million business, listings but it also allows users to browse by category, get maps, driving directions, see other businesses nearby and more, all for free. On top of all that, the user is also provided with the option to connect to an operator, if still needed, at any time during the process.

Sprint users can register for FreeMobile411′s service and download the app via link in the SMS they will receive upon registration. Non-Sprint customers can register to be notified when FreeMobile411 is available for their handset and carrier, or alternatively use the mobile internet version of FreeMobile411 by visiting freemobile411.com from their mobile phone’s browser.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
