As most may know, earlier in the Spring, we launched MapQuest 4 Mobile for BlackBerry. With My Places integration for easy retrieval of your saved Maps & Routes from MapQuest.com, it is the perfect compliment to the "road warrior" lifestyle.

For those of you that haven't downloaded the free application, we have made it super easy to get the app so you can hit the road! Over on wireless.mapquest.com we have added a handy little widget that allows you to easily get the application on your BlackBerry. Simply enter your mobile number into the form, click "Send me the link" and seconds later your download link arrives via a *text message. After clicking on the link, your download of the application will begin. It's the fastest way to start using MapQuest 4 Mobile on your BlackBerry!

To see if your BlackBerry is compatible, please click here and select your carrier and phone.
