Slingo, Inc. and Kayak Interactive have just launched a wireless version of their popular Slingo game. The game, which combines elements of both bingo and slot machines, is just one of many other games offered on www.slingo.com. Until now, players were limited to accessing their accounts from their computer consoles only. Now, the two companies have forged a deal with Verizon Wireless and Sprint that will allow Slingo's gaming clientèle to also play the bingo/slots game from their mobile phones.

The joint venture represents the first time in U.S. history that a multi-player web community game has been extended to include wireless handset accessibility. Players with existing accounts at Slingo.com can log in to the complete network of game players with their usernames and passwords through their cellphones in order to access all their favorite bingo, slots, poker, and lottery games.
