"At Fidelity, we recognize the growing popularity of the iPhone and iPod touch, and in fact, nearly half of the customers using our current mobile trading application, Fidelity MobileSM, log in from an iPhone1," said James C. Burton, president of Fidelity's retail brokerage business. "Our new app takes full advantage of the revolutionary technologies of iPhone and iPod Touch to allow us to deliver powerful trading and account management services in a very user friendly format."

With the new app, customers can also access their Fidelity account information and watch lists; stay updated on domestic and world markets via up-to-the-minute news; receive real-time quotes; and compare the performance of multiple stocks all on one screen with interactive charting capabilities.

The Fidelity® app for iPhone® and iPod touch® is the latest enhancement available to Fidelity's brokerage customers, and is one more way to take advantage of the new, low $7.95 online U.S. equity commissions announced earlier this month. As well, customers using the new app can trade with free commissions 25 broad domestic equity, international and fixed income iShares ETFs.

As mobile computing has evolved in the last decade, so too have Fidelity's mobile trading solutions. More than 10 years ago, Fidelity introduced mobile trading on a RIM® pager. Today, Fidelity Mobile (formerly named Fidelity Anywhere®) enables customers to access and execute many comprehensive investment services seamlessly on a variety of handheld devices. Over the past several years, Fidelity's mobile offering has experienced significant year-over-year growth in the number of wireless trades, users and log-ins on its mobile platforms.
