Alltel is enhancing its portfolio of location-based services apps with the introduction of Trimble Outdoors, a feature that lets customers plan and review their trips online and then get maps on their phone to use as a guide along their journey. They can use the built-in digital compass to display coordinates and edit waypoints.
The application captures photos, audio and video and allows for GPS-tagged online journaling at trimbleoutdoors.com. Trimble Outdoors is available to Alltel customers for $39.99 per year, $5.99 per month or $1.99 per day. It's compatible with a wide-range of Alltel GPS-enabled handsets.
