InfoSpace Announces Availability of InfoSpace Find It! for BlackBerry

BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--InfoSpace, Inc. (Nasdaq: INSP) announced the launch of InfoSpace Find It! for BlackBerry® smartphones in North America. Starting today, users can download and enjoy the GPS-enabled InfoSpace Find It! for free^* on various BlackBerry smartphones from Research In Motion (RIM) (Nasdaq: RIMM) (TSX: RIM) including the BlackBerry® 8700 Series, BlackBerry® 7130 Series, BlackBerry® Pearl™ and the new BlackBerry® 8800. A complete list of supported models is included below.

“InfoSpace provides a valuable search application that helps BlackBerry users find nearby locations of interest," said Jeff McDowell, vice president, global alliances, Research In Motion. "Location-based applications, like InfoSpace Find It!, provide an added dimension that can simplify and enhance the mobile experience.”

InfoSpace Find It! is a premium application that distills millions of listings into six easy categories tailored to the on-the-go user – Dine Out, Go Out, Shop, Travel, Health, and Services. It combines eyes-free spoken directions and simple-to-use GPS functionality with the convenience of local search to locate nearby businesses, people, and events quickly and easily.

“Now that I have InfoSpace Find It! on my BlackBerry, I can’t live without it! In my day-to-day travels as a real estate appraiser, InfoSpace Find It! provides easy mobile access, giving me maps and directions to the addresses I’m looking for,” said David K. Akina, owner of Akina Appraisal Group, Los Gatos, Calif. “I also use it to find what’s nearby the houses I’m appraising, like restaurants, copiers, coffee shops, etc. It’s so easy to use and accurate because it works with my GPS receiver, and it saves me the expense of calling 411 all the time.”

Key features of InfoSpace Find It! for BlackBerry smartphones include:

• Spoken Turn-by-Turn Directions: Eyes-free navigation with spoken directions allows users to get where they are going without having to look at the screen.
• Expanded Content Library: Now find nearby events, Wi-Fi hotspots, local entertainment, golf courses and more than 15 million other points of interest.
• Save to Address Book: One click on a listing saves it to your BlackBerry address book.
• Refreshed Listings: Content is refreshed weekly. Movies and events are up-to-date. Outdated listings are removed to keep the data as relevant and useful as possible.
• What's Nearby®: Access details on what's close with one click, even if the user doesn't know exactly where they are.
• Find People by Name or Number: Search using only first and last name, or by entering a phone number to find out to whom it belongs.
• One-Stop Searching: A single search location for Yellow Pages, White Pages, Maps, Directions, Movie Listings and more.
• Local Quick Clicks™: Find local business listings and locations with maps and driving directions with minimal clicking.
• Click to Connect: Make phone calls with one click instead of dialing the entire number.

"An exceptional mobile user experience is paramount to InfoSpace, so we have optimized InfoSpace Find It! for BlackBerry smartphones and believe we have created the most user friendly mobile local experience for users," said Rod Diefendorf, vice president of online and local search at InfoSpace. "With today's launch, we are giving users free access to all the local information they need in one place with the convenience of spoken directions and unmatched listings information."
