OPIS iPhone Application Helps Save at the Pump
 
Buy iphone from Amazon Cyber Monday and Black Friday Now
 
OPIS -- Oil Price Information Service -- is the largest supplier of retail gas and diesel pricing information in the country. OPIS has launched a new application for the iPhone that helps users save at the pump.

The application is called iGas and the GPS system of the iPhone 3G locates their position and finds the ten cheapest fueling stations in the immediate area. Users can also filter search results by their preferred type of fuel from diesel, regular, premium and so on.

"The iPhone changes the game for consumers when shopping for the best prices on goods and services. The immediacy of being able to use the iPhone to perform targeted internet queries anywhere allows people to optimize their purchasing dollar," said Michael Sinsky, CIO, OPIS.
