News 12 with "News 12 to Go" via Mobile Phone
News 12 with "News 12 to Go" via Mobile Phone. News 12 Networks announced the launch of “News 12 to Go,” an innovative service that conveniently delivers continually updated local traffic, weather, and news information to users over their cell phones. The News 12 to Go service allows users to access local traffic and weather information from their local area and from every other area served by News 12. Upon dialing, callers are automatically connected to the News 12 Traffic and Weather channel from their area. A voice menu allows users to access both the News 12 and News 12 Traffic and Weather feed for any area they may be interested in, including Long Island, Connecticut, Westchester, the Hudson Valley (serving Rockland and Orange Counties), the Bronx, Brooklyn, and New Jersey.
This free enhancement allows Cablevision customers who receive News 12 as part of their cable television service to access live audio streams of both News 12 and News 12 Traffic and Weather simply by dialing a phone number. Web-enabled cell phones can also access additional benefits and advanced features. With the launch of News 12 to Go, tri-state residents can access local news and valuable traffic and weather information wherever they are, whenever they want.
Customers with Web-enabled phones can also access other advanced features, including text-based top stories and local weather reports and extended forecasts. Video-enabled phones can download top stories as video files and complete forecasts can be accessed as well. News 12 to Go is a free service, but cell phone providers may charge fees for Internet usage and all users are encouraged to review their specific cell phone package for relevant terms.
