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.

AT&T launches the very cool Apartments for Rent cell phone application by Smarter Agent Print E-mail
Written by Smarter Agent   
Monday, 03 March 2008
AT&T and Smarter Agent partner to provide a fast, convenient and listing-rich Apartments for Rent application that consumers can use from their cell phones.



The spring rental season starts in less than one month.  12 million Americans (one out of three renters) move to a new apartment each year according to census data. 

 March 4, 2008 (Camden, NJ and Atlanta, GA)—If you have ever rented an apartment you know the process can be painfully cryptic.  Smarter Agent technology is mobile, location-aware and sorts to the top apartment listings with addresses and full descriptions - based on where you are - all from your cell phone.

 This makes it easy to get past vague ads claiming “Cozy apartment in up-and-coming neighborhood” (translation: small 1 room apartment in a slum) to find exactly what you want in an apartment, where you want -- faster than you can un-ruffle a newspaper on a street corner.

 Apartments for Rent by Smarter Agent is now available on over 25 AT&T cell phones. Consumers download Smarter Agent just as they would a ring tone or a game and get a complete experience designed specifically for mobile users.  Now anyone can find an apartment just by being in the neighborhood. 

 Smarter Agent helps consumers by instantly pinpointing the user’s location and returning information about the closest apartments for rent.  The application then provides consumers with in-depth data, including rental prices, the number of beds and baths in the unit, square footage, even pictures!    

 On your AT&T cell phone go to [Menu], [AT&T Mall], [Shop Applications], [Shopping & Local] then, [Smarter Agent Apartments for Rent]. The fee is only $2.99 per month unlimited usage.

 Smarter Agent is one of the most comprehensive resources in existence with a ton of listings– and it is available anywhere you are from your cell phone.  For example, Top 10 real estate website Apartments.com and over 150 newspaper partners; leading Realtors such a Prudential Douglas Elliman in New York City; multi-family property owners; alternative free newspapers such as the Athens News  and even user generated rental uploads all post to Smarter Agent on a daily basis.

 The application also has a lot of features that makes finding apartments fun and easy to use. 

 For example, Smarter Agent includes a GPS mapping function.  By selecting “Map It,” the user can see his or her location and all of the apartments for rent in the surrounding area on an interactive map.  In addition, the user can search by city and state to research multiple areas of interest, save properties to their phone or call the listed number for more information right from the application!

 “Because of Smarter Agent’s patented mobile real estate searching, users can find the best choices for apartments from their cell phone with lots of choices and one-click access to schedule appointments. Using prompts, and on some carriers via GPS, Smarter Agent locates where the user is via their cell phone and can instantly deliver robust and daily-updated apartment information,” said Brad Blumberg, CEO of Smarter Agent.

 Smarter Agent’s APTS FOR RENT application is now available to AT&T and SPRINT customers nationwide.

About Smarter Agent

Smarter AgentŪ combines mobile location technology, such as GPS, with information about real estate, neighborhoods and interesting places around you. Smarter Agent is the inventor of mobile location-triggered (such as GPS) real estate search -- and has been granted three patents.  By delivering location-relevant content to mobile devices and the Internet, consumers and professionals can learn, interact and transact with the world around them as never before possible available on over 50 Sprint and AT&T cell phones as well as Windows mobile devices – many with GPS compatibility that the Smarter Agent application takes advantage of to deliver listing results with laser-like accuracy.
