Wireless devices are becoming essential travel gear for many travelers.
These devices can make greener travel easier with their paperlessness and vast array of downloadable apps. Right now until March 1, 2010, Lonely Planet is offering free downloads of its Vancouver Travel Guide: The Sights, one of its iPhone City Guide Applications.
By researching with your wireless carrier, you can find even more ways to greener wireless usage.
Here are 5 Way to Greener Wireless:
1. Buy An Eco-Friendly Phone. There are more greener phones coming on the market. In Canada, Fido is selling the eco-friendly MOTO W233 Renew (shown above) by Motorola. This phone has 100 per cent recyclable phone housing, Carbonfree certification and inbox postage-paid recycling envelope.
2. Choose Paperless, Online Billing . Ask your carrier if they offer an online billing and payment option. Not only is it paperless but if you travel frequently, you don’t have to think about your bills piling up in your mailbox.
3. Download Travel Apps and Guides. Whether you’re planning a trip or on-the-road, it’s so easy to download travel apps for your iPhone or BlackBerry.
