E*Trade Bringing Mobile Pro App to the iPhone?

E*Trade has long supported Blackberry users, with their Mobile Pro application, and sometime (hopefully) this year they’ll be adding iPhone support as well. After all E*Trade is seriously behind the times in supporting the iPhone, even Bank of America and Citi have apps already.

Now take this with a grain of salt, as it is pure speculation on my part, all I am basing this off of is a message I received from E*Trade in response to my inquires about an iPhone app.

“Thank you for your message regarding E*TRADE Mobile PRO… … We are currently developing a platform for iPhone users; however, a release date has not yet been established. We are constantly updating our website and adding features based on the feedback we receive from customers. …”

Hopefully the app will not only make it to market, but also include access to banking features, like Quick Transfer and Bill Pay.

GrandCentral is Down

I use GrandCentral as both a business number and as a filtering system. When I fill out a form online that needs a number, I give them my GrandCentral number, that way if they start stalk calling me I can send them straight to voicemail or block them completely.

Imagine my surprise when I found out that GrandCentral has been down all morning, with no information posted on their blog or on Google’s main blog. Their website was down earlier today, but it appears to be up now. Though none of my three GrandCentral numbers are currently working.
