Coolest Mobile Phone Feature Ever?

I just heard about Verizon Wireless’s new V CAST Song ID feature – and it sounds absolutely amazing. Check this out:

With Verizon Wireless’ exclusive new V CAST Song ID, you can now hear a song, hold the phone toward the music so it can identify the music, and purchase a full-track song, Ringtone or Ringback tone — all right over-the-air from your phone. Customers only need a V CAST Music-enabled phone to start identifying songs playing from any music source.

I’m curious if Apple and/or other mobile phone networks will follow suit and create a similar features. It is a brilliant idea to help consumers identify the name of songs they hear on the radio. This sounds like an amazing technology that could really help boost sales of ringtones and digital music songs.

Check out this Verizon news release for more info about V Cast Song ID.

Yes. It is the coolest feature ever. I have a VCast phone, but haven’t tried it yet.
