This deal is only available via AT&T’s web site and you must have some features on your plan already such as unlimited texting ($20 individual, $30 family) and a certain select calling plan. If you have all that, then go and sign up…oddly on the same day the Verizon iPhone goes on sale to the public.
Ford has finally responded to GMs mobile application suite due to be available for every 2011 GM vehicle with MyFord Mobile. Like GMs offering, Ford owners will have access to unlock or lock their doors, checking the charging status of the batteries (if you have such items in your Ford,) and unlike GM, the addition of MapQuest giving you access to the nearest gas station. Unlike GM, Ford has decided to go the universal way and make the app a Web App to allow greater access among all devices. While I give Ford kudos for implementing HTML5 for its Web App (WAP 2.0 will also be available for dumb phones,) one only has to look at the iPhone as an example of how well that works. During its first year run, the iPhone with Web Apps barely made a blip on the handheld as many were frustrated with the slow displaying graphics and constant wait with each link tapped. Once Steve Jobs announced native applications for the iPhone, the developer community rejoiced and today we have the most successful app store and a new revolution in smartphones. GM went with the revolution and Ford went with frustration. That’s disappointing. Maybe it will make a change when countless calls of disgruntled users voice their mayhem or when it reads the marketing reports showing more consumers purchasing GMs because it had an iPhone app.
That said, enjoy the press release!

“Scosche is pleased to debut the next generation of mobile support to the aftermarket industry at the Consumer Electronics Show,” continued Alves. “We believe Scosche’s PRO App will improve installer productivity and knowledge.
