Tuesday, 26 August 2008
Dial Directions offers users free, voice activated directions to and from an address, business, or an event - currently available in 9 cities in the US. This is an ideal, hands-free solution for those with no auto navigation or Internet connectivity at hand.
Dial Directions, the leading provider of location voice-entry
technology for mobile devices and services, and a leading event planning site
will soon be offering free voice-activated directions to users nationwide. Users
of this site will be able to get directions and event information sent directly
to their cell phone with no registration, GPS, or internet access required.
When users request event information to be sent to the mobile
phones, they can click on a directions link located after event details, which
launches a call to a voice-activated service. Users then say their starting
address or location, and instantly receive directions to their event destination
via text message. With the Dial Directions service, users will be able to obtain
directions easier, faster and with more convenience while theyre on the go.
