Symbian Ltd. and Tele Atlas have launched AmiGO, a friendly smartphone application that is designed to make evenings at the 3GSM World Congress as stress-free and fun as possible.

Powered by Symbian OS™ and digital map data by Tele Atlas, AmiGO provides the perfect guide to get around Barcelona and connect with associates. Users can find out where their colleagues are, track down a local bar or locate the nearest points of interest in seconds. AmiGO will even help them order a coffee or beer in Spanish.

The application is available for download online exclusively from Handango and Symbian at www.symbian.com/3gsm/amigo.html. Once downloaded AmiGO will:

• Locate an AmiGO – shows the approximate location of friends based on mobile cell site information and maps displayed by Tele Atlas partner Geo Solutions
• Find the nearest recommended restaurants, bars and clubs – details of a select number of great bars, restaurants and clubs based on location provided by locals ‘in the know’
• Order a coffee or beer in Spanish – helpful phrases ranging from – ‘Where’s the nearest Taxi stand?’ to ‘Is that a smartphone in your pocket’
• Provide an opportunity for users to win smartphones and smart gear – a chance to win prizes every day at 3GSM. Twice a day prizes will be given out which include Symbian smartphones, Slingboxes, and vouchers for free application downloads from Handango.com*
