Hostelworld.com should be applauded for developing an application for the iPhone. It may take a while for their to be enough iPhones sold so that Hostelworld will have a sufficiently large customer base. But, working out the kinks now, Hostelworld will be leading in providing web pages to hand-held mobile devices.
It seems only logical that the best way to communicate with traveller, who is mobile, is through a mobile device. There has been talk about mobile travel applications for a decade now, but not much progress. Maybe the day is coming soon.
A drawback to the iPhone is that when Apple rolled it out it in the United States, it was required that customers also sign up for a two-year AT&T service contract. And, Apple keeps updating the software on the iPhone to thwart those who want to unblock the phone.
Perhaps Apple will see the error made in the US and not to tie foreign sales of the iPhone to a particular provider. Then, when a backpacker arrives in the next country on the journey, he or she could buy a pre-paid mobile phone account an slip in the SIM chip. This is not possible with the iPhones sold so far, mostly in the US.
