Kansas City, Mo. — (April 1, 2008) — Today Handmark®, a global leader in mobile media, announced new TV Guide® mobile services for Windows Mobile® and BlackBerry® handsets. The new services are free and available through Handmark distribution channels.

TV Guide Mobile combines features from America’s #1 entertainment news magazine, plus local television listings, movie reviews, industry and celebrity news, together with watch lists for personal favorites. TV Guide Mobile includes:

  • Enhanced local listings with the familiar, patented TV Guide interface
  • Program reminders by episode or series delivered as an SMS text message
  • Home and away options to view schedules for multiple locations
  • Share a show with friends or family by forwarding listing details
  • Up to date Hollywood news and unique TV Guide editorial columns

“TV Guide Mobile is a great addition to any BlackBerry or Windows Mobile device,” said Paul Reddick, Handmark CEO. “You can’t beat all the customizable information it offers for free.”

The new TV Guide Mobile application is immediately available to download through Handmark distribution channels, including http://tvguide.handmark.com and Pocket Express “Extras” (www.pocketexpress.com).

A quick peek at the download site and this looks pretty neat, and the price is spot on! :D Can we have this for the UK please Handmark? :(

That looks like a great service !! Is there a chance they will offer a UK version ??

Seeing as DVB-H will be all the rage (hopefully!) in a few years time ..... this would give them an early lead .....
