Here's a 2004 review http://www.tsbvi.edu/Outreach/seehear/summer04/tell.htm 1-800-555-8355 which I just tried works now still though it appears to have disappeared from advertising. You missed one other mobile search option - put a library reference desk on speed dial, and call a person who would be in front of a computer to mediate the search for you. I've done that as well for driving directions, just make sure that you know someone likely to be online and who is appropriately happy to get a call even if it's just to do a search for you.
