Handmark Releases Version 2.0 of Express
"Handmark�, a global leader in mobile media, today announced it is putting even more information in consumers hands� literally � with Version 2.0 of its award-winning Pocket Express� bundle of wireless content services for cell phones, smartphones, and wireless PDAs. The upgrade adds a sleek new interface, location-based services, more news and photos, real-time sports scores, and improved mapping features. Pocket Express gains a significant functional upgrade with the new �Tuxedo� interface that makes all Pocket Express services accessible from a single screen called �PageOne.� This major upgrade to the Pocket Express experience will be available free to all current subscribers. Up to thirty times faster than browser-based web access and with up to 80% fewer keystrokes, Pocket Express turns an Internet-enabled wireless handset into a personalized instant information center. News, sports, movies, maps and more can be automatically updated throughout the day, and accessed with minimal navigation. Content can be reached using the five-way navigation buttons on the user�s device or the number keys on a phone keypad."
I really like the idea of this product, but last time I checked I can't use for much of anything in Canada. If you're in the US though, this looks like a very slick product - if you can swallow the $6.96 USD monthly fee. This is almost something the carriers should be providing to their customers for free as an added value. Does anyone here use this product? If so, what are your thoughts on it? I love the idea of fast, efficient Web services - I just can't seem to find any that I can use. :?
