ioVectorTM Launches in BlackBerry App WorldTM   |  December 2, 2009  

Free Application Helps Toronto Motorists Avoid Traffic Bottlenecks and Arrive on Time

TORONTO--(Marketwire - December 1, 2009) - Intellione, the premier provider of absolute traffic information for consumers, businesses and governments, today announced the availability of its ioVector smartphone application through the BlackBerry App World store. ioVector, an always-free application, delivers live traffic maps, truly accurate trip times and up-the-road search to mobile users throughout the Golden Horseshoe.

ioVector is powered by ioTraffic™ -- a patented system that accurately measures speed on freeways and city streets alike, surpassing all currently available traffic detection systems.

Available for BlackBerry 8300 & 8800 Series and Bold and Pearl models, ioVector is free for consumers to download and use, whether for dodging unexpected backups from bad weather or for peace of mind in knowing actual arrival times to their destinations based on current speeds for all major roadways, not just freeways.

Unlike heavy GPS/navigation applications, ioVector is small in size, downloads in a matter of seconds and is designed to conserve the phone's precious battery power. And unlike other traffic applications offering trial versions, ioVector is always free and feature-rich. Consumers need only manage their data plans responsibly.

Registered BlackBerry ioVector users are also offered complimentary access to the ioVector Web site -- a companion tool featuring real-time, auto-synching with the mobile application. Places, routes and other favourites saved through either tool instantly appear in the other for seamless use.
