You're driving through the country, never wanting to go home, and you spot a cottage that's on the market. Wonder how much they go for?
If Airborne Mobile's Homes onMobile Phones is successful, you'll have your answer in minutes.
Just pick up your cellphone. Send a text message to the number on the sign and you'll have the price almost instantly, along with its MLS listing number and the agent's phone number. You can call right away or look the place up when you get home. You don't have to write anything down, the information is all in your inbox.
However, if you have Internet access on your phone, you'll be taken to the Homes on Mobile Phones website that has the full listing and up to 10 photographs. You get an instant virtual tour standing on the curb.
Montreal-based Airborne Mobile, co-founded by Andy Nulman, who also founded the Just for Laughs comedy festival, has spent much of its past catering to the entertainment industry with features for mobile phones.
