FedEx has debuted a new BlackBerry application and a mobile site to let customers ship, track and find bricks-and-mortar locations via their mobile device.

Customers can access and manage their MyFedEx account via the application and Web site. The BlackBerry application is available for free in BlackBerry App World.

?From Usablenet's perspective, this announcement marks our first mobile launch by an international courier,? said Nick Taylor, president of Usablenet, New York.
