As businesses know, prospective customers have gone mobile. That’s why the FTC’s Do Not Call Registry services are now even more accessible to consumers. The Registry website has been updated to be PDA-friendly. Consumers can go to www.donotcall.gov from their mobile devices and register a phone number, verify their registration, or file a complaint. Consumers are already taking advantage of this new way of keeping their Registry information up to date.
The Registry’s mobile move also serves as a reminder to telemarketers or businesses that use telemarketing services that Do Not Call remains a popular and consumer-driven program. So compliance is more important than ever. Over 204 million consumer numbers are on the Registry and more people add their lines every day. For information on complying with the Registry, bookmark the special page for businesses.

It's great that consumers can update their information so easily directly with the FTC. There are too many telemarketing services that just don't follow the rules.
