NEWS 14 CAROLINA -- Jan 3 -- Many of the big online dating sites have gone mobile. Match.com, Lavalife and sms.ac, for example, have all linked with Sprint PCS to offer matchmaking on the go. Said Michael Galluccio of Sprint PCS, "you can set up your profile (on a cellphone) and go through profiles, find somebody who peaks your interest and start to communicate back and forth with them. Really, the only difference is that it's smaller. And what you're giving up in size you make up for with mobility." In the future, the service might use a cell phone's GPS. Sprint is enabling all of their phones with GPS services, and they need to find a way to make that a very strong selling point. Having the GPS tell you if there are cute singles in your vicinity is a fun selling point.
