AT&T Offers Mobile Backup for Handsets

AT&T is launching a Mobile Backup application that lets its mobile subscribers store, update and access the contact information on their wireless phones through a new downloadable handset application.



AT&T Mobile Backup will be available on a variety of handsets, beginning with six Motorola devices: the Motorola RAZR V3xx, RAZR V3i, RAZR V3r, V365, SLVR L7 and KRZR K1. The service will be compatible with more handsets in the future.



"Most people have contact information on their wireless devices that they do not have stored anywhere else," said Carlton Hill, vice president of Voice Products and Devices for AT&T's wireless unit. "Because of this, we are excited to offer a secure backup option to protect this important information."



AT&T Mobile Backup is powered by Asurion, a provider of enhanced services to the wireless industry. The product will be available on compatible handsets for $1.99 a month.
