Reuters today released its Thomson Reuters News Pro app for the iPhone, offering more multimedia features. Since Reuters has also launched the BlackBerry version, but this app has different characteristics for each of the two devices.

The BlackBerry app is more text-centric, while the iPhone places more emphasis on the video and photo features.

According to Chris Ahearn, Thomson Reuters' president of media, the free iPhone app is targeted to all business professionals, not just financial or specific topics consumers. It's the reason behind video and photo features' emphasis for iPhone.
