Freeware : Microsoft releases Live Search for Windows Mobile
June 30, 2007 [General] | By Edward J. R.

Strangely Microsoft is doing it on the Handango website!

Turn your Windows Mobile phone into a map, phone book, or city guide. Live Search for Windows Mobile helps you find places, map their location and get directions. Now all you need to get around town is right there in your pocket.

Local Search: search the Microsoft Live Maps local search database for any business or residential listing based on keyword, name, or category- results are always up-to-date.

Categories: friendly category lists allow you to search for the most common local places without typing. Restaurants, hotels, movies, nightlife, shopping, tourist attractions ? are now just one click away.

Maps: view interactive maps that you can zoom and move around like you would on your PC- see road and aerial views.

Directions: get detailed driving directions to your destination, both in text as well as displayed on a map.

Traffic: check updated traffic conditions (red/yellow/green) in major highways, overlaid on your maps, so you can avoid traffic and get to your destination faster (available in select US cities only).

GPS integration: Live Search connects to your GPS receiver to track your real-time position on the map, follow you along the driving directions, and perform local searches based on your location- some Windows Mobile devices include built-in GPS receivers- all other Windows Mobile devices are compatible with external Bluetooth GPS receivers (separate purchase required).
