The only free and personalized services/app that gives basic cell phones iPhone features plus GPS, navigation, location messaging and more



CUPERTINO, Calif., April 15 -- Building on a successful demo at this month's CTIA wireless press event in Las Vegas, NV, RoadComm.com today made available its LifeInPocket(TM) mobile suite "http://lifeinpocket.com/" to consumers.

LifeInPocket(TM) is the first downloadable mobile phone application/services platform that transforms lightweight cell phones into a laptop-like multitasking heavyweight all the while maintaining mobility.

Free of charge, LifeInPocket(TM) will upgrade nearly all existing and future cell phones with a greater array of functionality than the iPhone. Those features include GPS, navigation, location messaging, friends/family locator, and much more. (Currently all LifeInPocket(TM) products and services are available to subscribers free of charge.)

With little or no learning curve, no hardware or software to buy, and no binding contracts, LifeInPocket(TM) effectively transcends the iPhone and its rivals.

LifeInPocket(TM)'s interoperability, such as messaging, PDF/Word/picture email attachments, financial management, social networking, document viewing, bible, flight/hotel price search and location messaging, make it nothing less than a home office that fits in your shirt pocket.

Soccer moms and teenagers will also revel in its unparalleled utility. Besides maps, weather, PIM, and web browser, in addition LifeInPocket(TM) offers GPS/address-based directory with more than 14 million points of interest (POIs).

Even more significant is the turn-by-turn navigation prompts with voice guidance. That modality allows for far safer eyes/hands-free navigation. Parents/friends will find great use in LifeInPocket(TM)'s instant location messaging, family/friends locator and a host of related peace-of-mind and social functions.

Unlike iPhone's limited sync capability, LifeInPocket(TM) enables address book sync/import/export with Yahoo!, Gmail, MSN, Hotmail, Outlook Express, Palm Desktop, etc. The user can one-click on those synced contacts to "call," to "mail" and to "navigate" on your phone. Phones with or without GPS are all supported.

The only one of its kind, LifeInPocket(TM) symbolizes the next generation of applications and services that can upgrade a regular cell phones into a powerful, top-of-the-line smart phone.
