    Sprint and GetJar announce partnership to bring thousands of apps to more mobile phones

    From:  http://community.sprint.com/baw/community/buzzaboutwireless/apps/blog/2010/02/11/sprint-and-getjar-bring-thousands-of-apps-to-more-mobile-phones

    Maybe you already are an apps fanatic. Or maybe you have heard the rising clamor about mobile phone apps and wondered what all the fuss was about. Either way, we have good news for anyone interested in getting more entertainment, handy help or just more value out of a mobile phone.

    Sprint has a new partnership with GetJar, the world’s second largest app store. GetJar’s catalog of more than 60,000 free applications now are available to all Sprint customers with feature phones such as the LG Rumor, Samsung Reclaim and the Sanyo 2700.

    Sprint customers with RIM BlackBerry and Windows Mobile devices also have access to the GetJar library of applications.

    - Len Barlik, vice president of wireless and wireline services for Sprint
    “We are opening up the world of apps to customers who may not have a smartphone. Our partnership with GetJar means that all Sprint customers will now have access to thousands of applications ranging from popular apps such as YouTube and Google Maps to more niche applications that address their business needs.”

    How to use GetJar:

    Windows Mobile phones:

    • Open the SprintWeb home page http://vision.sprintpcs.com/
    • At the top click on “Categories”
    • Click on Downloads
    • GetJar will either be a listed option or clicking on Downloads will take you directly to GetJar

    Or you can go to http://m.sprint.getjar.com/
