Telnic has released two new free and open-source applications for the .tel: one for the iPhone and one for the Blackberry. These two applications allow end users to access .tel domains quickly and easily by totally bypassing the web.

My.tel, the iPhone application, allows a user to log into their TelHosting account directly from their iPhone and update or manage all their .tel contact information and details, making it simple and easy to update their .tel on the go.

The Blackberry application allows users to easily lookup .tel domains and save the data in their Blackberry address books. It also enables them to switch profiles, accept friend requests for private data and synchronize their contacts with live .tel data so their address book is always up to date.

You can discover the full features of these two applications on our Community website at: http://telnic.org/community-applications.html.

Downloading these applications is simple: Users can either enter apps.telnic.tel in the browser on their iPhone or Blackberry or they can visit http://telnic.org/community-applications.html and download the applications through their PC.

For the iPhone application, you may also choose to link directly to the Apple iTunes store, however this requires that you download the Apple-authorized button and adhere to the guidelines described at http://devimages.apple.com/iphone/artwork/guidelines.pdf.
