The other day I was buying some bed sheets. While waiting, I noticed the cahsier was fiddling with her mobile phone. Poking my nose over the counter, I asked, “What are you doing? She enthusiastically replied,”I’m putting my daily intake of calories into my phone.” Well I was happy and so was she. She then told me it was through her carrier which was either Verizon or T-mobile at the time I can’t recall.

Anyway she gave me the rundown on how it has all these categories and calories and it just tallies it all for you. I do wish my carrier had this nifty feature as I’m a tad bit into fitness.

To this date no sales rep at any kiosk for either Verizon or T-Mobile has any idea of what I’m talking about.

Well a mobile fitness application might be a step in the right direction for everyone with Sprint.
