Here’s a great way to promote your brand – provide customers with a useful mobile app. OSRAM SYLVANIA, the automotive lighting solutions company, did just that with their iPhone application, which is made to help drivers to find the correct replacement headlights, signal bulbs and almost all other auto bulbs for their vehicle. You can think of it as a mobile automotive lamp replacement guide.
Here’s how to use it: select a vehicle’s make, model and year of manufacture, and get a detailed listing of replacement automotive bulbs for every make of car sold in the United States from 1991 to 2009 on the iPhone 3GS, and 1999 to 2009 on the iPhone 2G/3G and iPod Touch. I’m not sure why there’s such a difference, but I’m guessing your cars are newer than 1999, anyway.
The iPhone 3GS version is available for download from here, whereas the version for older iPhones and iPod Touch could be grabbed from here. Both versions are available free of charge.

Dusan Belic
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.
