Frucall interview in San Jose Mercury News
San Jose Mercury News interviewed Frucall team which was published yesterday. Things are really picking up and we're getting more coverage an attention from mainstream media as well as blogosphere. This is great!
"Shoppers who have pre-registered payment information in an electronic wallet can hit a button to buy the item when they hear the best price. Shoppers also can bookmark an item, hear customer ratings or even leave themselves a voice message about the product." from the article.
And one of Behzad's quotes: "That is a natural way of communicating. You don't need special things on your phone. We rely on a technology people are comfortable using.''
