70% of respondents used their mobile phones to access information through Internet search engines last year, reports ABI research from data in surveys in 2007 and 2008.  That represents a substantial 14% increase over 2007. The consumption of mobile data services, including search, has steadily increased year over year as indicated by the use of email and web from a mobile phone.

That jump in mobile search usage is nearly double the increase in users who said they accessed mobile websites generally. "Mobile search represents a utility for information anytime and anywhere," says senior analyst Jeff Orr. "With a few keywords, one can quickly identify movie times, the discography of a musical artist, recommendations for a local eatery and so much more."

Some types of content accessed via mobile phones rose in popularity from 2007 to 2008. These included news, game downloads, music downloads, and especially video downloads. A significantly lower percentage in 2008 reported downloading a ringtone than the prior year, while the interest in location information, social networking and sports remained about the same.

Alltel Launches PhotoCopter Automatic Photo Transfer to PC & Web

logo_alltellogo-blue-large.jpgAlltel Wireless has teamed with Ontela to bring their customers PhotoCopter, a service that saves every camera phone picture customers snap to their home computers and favorite web photo albums.

The PhotoCopter service is exclusively available to Alltel customers with the Motorola V3m, V3a, V9m and ROKR for $2.99/month, providing customers with unlimited picture transfer to their PC, email address, and web photo albums including Photobucket, Flickr, Blogger, and Snapfish.

The PhotoCopter service addresses a widespread problem for camera phone owners: it is often difficult to get pictures off of a camera phone. On a typical phone model, it requires 100 keystrokes to get ten pictures transferred to a PC. While a recent Ontela study reported that 93 percent of camera phone users want to save their pictures to their home computer, only 24 percent of camera phone users can actually do it.
