The CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® (C.A.R.) today announced the availability of a mobile version of car.org, the Association’s official Web site. The mobile version enables visitors to access car.org via cell phone.

“When a mobile device accesses car.org, the Web site automatically determines what browser the visitor is using, and decides whether to deliver either the desktop content or a more streamlined version suitable for low bandwidth and small form factor devices, such as PDAs, browser-equipped cell phones, and the like,” said C.A.R. President William E. Brown.

The mobile version of car.org currently supports the following PDA browsers: Windows CE, SPV, Palm®, Nokia, iPhone, BlackBerry®, Teleca, and UIQ. Popular devices that employ these car.org-enabled browsers include: BlackBerry®, Palm® Treo™, iPhone, and Blackjack.

“Now, members can access the latest housing data, news, and real estate information, when meeting with clients and not near a computer,” added Brown.

A log-on function, enabling registered members to view password-protected content on car.org is currently under development.
