In 2007, Silicon Valley veterans Andy Watson and Steve Shah were frustrated with hearing the same old "Top 40" news on the radio and TV. They believed there had to be a better way to get customized news on-the-go, and Smartphones just weren't up to the task. The text was microscopic and you couldn't even use them while driving or working out. So they found a way to give on-the-go consumers the news they want to hear for free — all without having to sift through the news they don't want.
The result of this mission is Rocketron from Asyncast Corporation. Rocketron, which is launching at DEMOfall 2008, is a new service that provides consumers with hands-free and eyes-free access to personalized news simply by making a phone call.
With Rocketron, listeners are in control. They navigate the news by voice command, resulting in a truly personalized experience.«Less
