What is new in the world of Alltel Wireless? Nationwide roaming… that’s what. The largest impact is being felt by GPS users who were previously unable to take advantage of their features when trying to use their GPS out of their service area. This newest development will allow users to use their GPS in over 45 major metro areas, where they had been previously inoperable.

In the market for GPS? Alltel offers a suite of GPS applications that include TeleNav GPS Navigation and Alltel Navigation, Alltel Where, Axcess Family Finder, as well as other people finders such as those available to businesses for keeping track of employees on the clock. TeleNav and Alltel Where can be used to access turn-by-turn driving directions to any number of destinations such as gas stations, ATMs, hotels and hospitals. Families may wish to take advantage of Alltel’s Axcess Family Finder through which families can keep track of one another through the internet or a mobile phone. Parents can even access interactive maps of their childrens’ exact locations at any given time. There are also similar programs through which businesses can monitor employees locations while on the road or en route anywhere nationwide.

Alltel also offers Wi-Fi options for those of us on the go so that we can always be connected… no matter where we are. Wi-Fi services are powered by Boingo Wireless which allows Alltel subscribers access to over 60,000 hotspots in North and South America.

Standard roaming charges apply for subscribers who wish to utilize Alltel’s nationwide roaming.
