My local cable, internet, cell and utility companies are already using it to field calls and answer questions online and phone.

When I drive for dollars, I just take notes of the addresses in my phone and add them to my propstream lists later.As for cash buyers, I don't think there's such thing as too many buyers on your buyers list, although you do only need one to close a deal.
