Contact: "Show on Map"

Okay, I may be going senile, but...

Wasn't there once an option to "Show on map", while viewing a contact, which when tapped opened the contact's address in Windows Live?

If so, why is it gone in Sprint's WM6.5 and how does one get it back? There's a link to Google Maps but I would rather use Windows Live/Bing.

Thanks.

It's always been googlemaps as long as I've known about it. All of the HTC roms with this feature (since 'rhodium' manila 2.1) have included a googlemaps package. You would probably need to edit a lua script to get it to open Bing.

I said I may be senile.

I may be remembering this from the phone I just came from--the Touch.

Regardless, I'd still like it to open Bing/Live Search rather than Google Maps.
