As we told "Think of it as your phone’s address book getting even smarter" & we were expecting that there will be core integration with the phone's address book & so it is. Xobni Mobile will be deeply integrated into your mobile experience. For example, you will be able utilize the power of Xobni’s comprehensive people search directly from the completely familiar BlackBerry “Compose Email” screen.

With Xobni Mobile, just start a new email message as you normally would, then select the Xobni bar and type in the first letter of their first name or last name or company name. soon you’ll see results from everyone who has ever emailed you, ranked by importance to you with rich profile photos & job titles.
