Eldorado Hotel Moves into Mobile Market
Thursday, September 30th, 2010With the introduction of the Smart Phone, it is clear that things are changing quickly. For example, there used to be a time when people needed to have a laptop or internet access on a desktop to find out the day’s latest news. They could use the internet for all their needs – from gaming scores to weather and breaking news and traffic. It as necessary to get to an internet capable center to find the solutions they needed for information. Now things are different. With the rise of the Smart Phone, people no longer need to bring a large laptop or get home for information. There are plans provided by numerous phone companies that allow people to gain information on their Smart Phones. It isn’t limited information either. In fact, the Smart Phone can just as easily allow you to browse full webpages and do full searches for information. The plans for Smart Phones like the Blackberry and iPhone are all affordable too so a family having multiple accounts is not unheard of. More and more people are using the Smart Phone option to stay alert and get the latest breaking news sent directly to them when they are on the road, at work, vacationing or relaxing.
With the rise in Smart Phones, there comes a new market for applications to those phones. Now, the casino market is getting in on the fun. The Eldorado Hotel Casino in Reno, Nevada is now moving into the application market. The company just announced that it will be providing customers with a mobile app that lets users plan their vacations and reservations more easily. It is an Expedia.com-like application that tells them all the pertinent information in the Nevada area. The second application is being developed to provide specific information on the guests’ current location within the city. It acts like a GPS of sorts in that it allows a user to enter their location and then gives them a current list of things to do, specials, bonuses, promotions and other insights into the market. These applications are hoped to be downloaded by thousands of Las Vegas visitors in coming months.
