DYMO CardScan Mobile Takes the Work out of
Networking by Sending Business Card Information to User’s Digital Contacts
DYMO CardScan, a leading provider of contact
management solutions, today announced the expansion of its mobile application
availability to users of iPhone and BlackBerry smartphones. DYMO CardScan Mobile
allows for fast, accurate business card scanning while on-the-go.
Offered exclusively for Windows Mobile®
in October 2009, DYMO CardScan Mobile
now allows iPhone and BlackBerry smartphone users to
instantly send contact information from a business card to the correct fields in
a digital contact list by simply taking a photo of a business card with the
smartphone camera.
"We’re excited to offer this application to additional smartphone users,"
says Lisa Howe, Director of Marketing, DYMO
CardScan. "DYMO CardScan Mobile provides a simple solution for on-the-go
professionals who need to easily reference information from their business
contacts."
How it Works
To use DYMO CardScan Mobile, users take a picture of any business card with
a smartphone camera and CardScan Mobile automatically
inserts all information from the card into the proper fields in the phone’s
contact list. In addition to Windows Mobile OS 6+ smartphones with a 3 mp or
higher camera with autofocus, the application is now available for iPhone 3GS,
OS4, OS3 and BlackBerry® Platforms v4.6, v4.7 and v5.0 with an autofocus camera.
Specific models include:
- BlackBerry® Curve™ 8900, BlackBerry® Storm™ 9530; BlackBerry® Storm 2™ 9550;
BlackBerry® Tour™ 9630, BlackBerry® Bold™ 9700
A CardScan business card scanner and software are not required to operate the
application.
Users can purchase and download the DYMO CardScan Mobile application directly
from their smartphone through application download sites including iTunes and
App World. In the United States, the
Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price is $9.99.
