SymbianOne Feature Article

The Platform Promise: S60 Devices From Samsung - Java technology was heralded as write-once-run-everywhere - we know the reality was somewhat different. As the first Samsung S60 devices arrive in the SymbianOne offices Richard Bloor asks if the S60 platform serves Symbian C++ developers better. In this article Bloor tests the Samsung SGH-G810, SGH-I550, SGH-L870, and SGH-I8510 (INNOV8) S60 devices.

Shopqwik.com Launches Free Mobile Phone Software That’s Just The Ticket For Travel Reservation Print E-mail
Written by ShopQwik.com   
Saturday, 05 August 2006
Implemented using Flash Lite 2 ShopQuik Mobile runs on a range of S60 devices and allows users to save time by booking a holiday in a traffic jam, or paying the London congestion charge over breakfast.

Busy people get a chance to chill out this long hot summer with the launch of free mobile software from Shopqwik.com. Shopqwik.com's service means the user can book flights, hotels, car hire, beach resorts and pay the London congestion charge, all at the press of a button.

For the first time in Europe, the Shopqwik service allows users to make complete bookings without wasting time on a maze of call centre options or trawling through websites. Using Shopqwik's software it takes just 90 seconds to book a flight from start to finish and two key presses to pay the congestion charge. With flight details and a reservation ID for check-in all accessed via the phone, Shopqwik users can just grab their passports and go.

The Shopqwik software meets the needs of any busy global traveller: car hire can be booked in 6,000 locations, and flights can be booked with Ryanair, Easyjet and 25 other budget airlines all over Europe. For accommodation, 30,000 hotels are available worldwide. Even a last minute beach apartment in the Med is only seconds away. All this can be achieved in complete security as no transaction details are stored on the phone.

Mark Tynan, CEO of Shopqwik.com, says: "While temperatures rise this summer, so can stress levels, as people juggle work travel schedules, or try to squeeze in a holiday. However, Shopqwik keeps everything speedy, simple and secure. And, at such competitive prices, customers can be confident they'll bag a bargain."

Shopqwik keeps customers up to date with a handy free service, emailing and texting all the booking details, and even re-sending the text the day before travel as a timely reminder. Booking information is available at the touch of a button on a phone or to view on a PC, where customers can resend booking emails.

Shopqwik also offers an additional service not available on most travel websites: anyone booking a 'city hotel' can modify the dates of the booking and cancel it entirely in seconds – a service currently exclusive to Shopqwik.com .

Shopqwik.com is offering a hot deal for summer, charging no commission on beach hotels and flights, so customers can enjoy an average saving of £150 per booking (based on two passengers).
