CAPITALTHINKING HAS ANNOUNCED THE launch of its updated Web site,
at www.capitalthinking.com. The newest tools offered on the site include
the graphic CapitalThinking commercial mortgage calculator--a Java-based
applet that provides a depiction of actual mortgage costs under
different financing scenarios--and access to instant rate quotes through
Internet-enabled cellular phones. The wireless application protocol
(WAP) tool helps on-the-move mortgage brokers, lenders or borrowers stay
abreast of shifting markets, according to the company. Using any
wireless phone carrier offering Internet access, users can remotely
monitor price movements for the prime, Treasury, LIBOR and swap rates.
