MyRatePlan.com Introduces CellCalc 2006

Summary: MyRatePlan.com, an unbiased shopping comparison site for the evaluation of cell phones and plans, this week announced the launch of a new version of its CellCalc software, created to save consumers hours of time – and potentially hundreds of dollars – as they research the best cell phone plan for their needs. This free consumer tool is located at www.myrateplan.com/wireless_plans.
CellCalc is unlike any other cell phone plan comparison tool available, combining a features filter with a powerful bill calculator, both working together to dynamically update the available rate plans, which are presented in a clear and concise matrix format. Variations exist for single, family and pay-as-you-go plans, developed to address the unique characteristics of each plan type. The result is a customized solution for each consumer in less than 5 minutes – a fraction of the time it would take to do this research independently.

URL: http://www.FaxZero.com
Summary: Despite the popularity of e-mail and instant messaging for business communications, fax remains a vital communications tool for businesses of all sizes. A new web site, FaxZero.com, lets anyone send faxes to anywhere in the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada for free. By filling out a simple online form, users can fax any Microsoft Word file, PDF document, Excel workbook, or text file that's on their computer.

The service allows users to send two free faxes each day, of up to three pages each. Faxes are usually delivered within minutes: once a fax is delivered, FaxZero.com notifies the sender with a confirmation e-mail message. The free service is supported by advertising: an advertisement appears on the cover page of free faxes. Users who would rather not have an ad on the cover page (for instance, if you're faxing a resume to a potential employer,) or who need to send more than three pages, can opt to send a Premium fax. For $1.79, FaxZero's Premium fax option lets users send up to 10 pages, with no cover page ad, and no two-fax-per-day limit.
