It seems Americans have a lot to talk about. U.S. cell phone subscribers racked up more than a trillion minutes of cell phone talk time in one year alone, according to the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association (CTIA).
Dialing Up Different Uses
However, people don't just use cell phones to talk. Thanks to text messaging, mobile downloads and Internet access, today's phones provide a variety of services at the touch of a few buttons. For instance, 4INFO, a mobile search company, delivers information and entertainment right to people's mobile phones. By simply sending a text message to their short code 44636, people can get instant information about things such as flight times, stock quotes, movie times, weather forecasts, business listings, sports scores and player stats. The service works over any phone and it's free.
Getting Personal
Text message alerts are the latest tools to keep you in the know while on the go. Have a favorite sports team? Then have the score delivered to your phone each time their game ends. Weather nut? Then set the weather forecast for delivery to your phone each morning.
Each of these alerts can be set with 4INFO. People can send a team name (e.g., "dodgers") in a text message to 44636. When the reply comes back with the score, it offers the option of setting an alert by replying to the message with a 1. Alerts can be sent for weather reports, horoscopes, stocks, package delivery, personal reminders and sports player statistics as well.
Eliminate Expensive 411 Calls
Some mobile search companies also let people search using a Web browser-so if you have a "WAP" phone or can access the Web, results can come in any format. Best of all, it's free, easy and once you've found the number you want, it's automatically stored in your phone. No more expensive calls to 411. Anyone with a cell phone can begin using the service instantly.
