mobiEXPLORE UK downloaded over 70,000 times in three weeks

18 November, London – Gideon Multimedia, the mobile application specialist, is celebrating the overwhelming success of its free mobile travel guide, mobiEXPLORE UK.

Gideon has taken these pain points into account and fused together the best of both worlds – offering an array of useful information that is accessed via your mobile phone.
