Palm, Inc. has secured another big customer for their Palm Tungsten PDAs and Palm Treo smartphones. Agents of Primerica Financial Services (a subsidiary of Citigroup, Inc.) are using 4,000 Palm handhelds and smartphones to complete insurance applications in the comfort of a client’s own home.

Palm handhelds and smartphones running the custom-built application called TurboApps application help Primerica agents do the following:
– Minimize errors and incomplete applications by guiding them through the process;
– Provide clients with the best service possible;
– Keep client information more secure;
– Save time by not having to enter redundant data or wait for postal deliveries;
– Speed turnaround time;
– Submit applications as soon as their next synchronization; and
– Submit client payments faster.

“By empowering 4,000 agents with a mobile application like TurboApps, Primerica is enabling an ever-increasing mobile workforce to dramatically increase productivity,” said Tara Griffin, vice president, enterprise sales, Palm, Inc.
