“As one of the fastest growing segments in the mobile products industry the Droid provides a perfect platform for Black Book to deliver the timely , independent, and accurate values that have made us a cornerstone in the industry”, said Tom Cross, president of Black Book. “As more and more users turn to their mobile solutions as an integral tool in their professional lives, having the power of Black Book daily values at their fingertips, either at the dealership or the auction lane, provides a fast and easy tool that improves their productivity and decision making processes.”

Beta users of the application expressed a high degree of satisfaction with the product, noting most specifically the speed and ease of use of the fully resident application. Reaction was equally positive about the planned integration of VIN scanner functionality later this year that will be offered as a complimentary upgrade to Droid subscribers.

Black Book notes that myPowersports and myCollectibleCar apps will launch later this Quarter.
