Interesting, but how does it differ from your standard "411" on any phone?

In your world, perhaps. Sprint charges me $1.50 per 411. I don't have home service, so can't comment about that.

regular 411???

lolo, I need to move back to the states :(

1-800-FREE411 has been around for a while, and works wonderfully on cell phones. It's also easier to remember than GOOG411...

That's because Google loves you and wants you to be happy.


In return, you'll use them for everything in your life in 5 years :p

1-800-CALL411 has been around a while. Microsoft, so you may not have heard of it.
