App keeps informing me that a 'Update is Available'...

It D/L the 'newer' bing.cab, and installs correctly, however, when the app opens again, and I go to the Help--->About Option, it is still the same v: 5.0.11249.0
The 'Update is Available' option is still present...

I have uninstalled the app, and completely removed all Bing related folders on my storage card.....same endless loop.

Googled this issue, and came to this nice site..
Looks like ole MS (albeit this app is still in the beta state), needs to get their developers on this team to tighten up their act as this version seems slow, and quirky...

I too utilize Google Maps, but like to also have Bing, really enjoyed the reliable Mobile Windows Live app.....interface etc.

At least the GPS functions seem to be working correctly for me with this version of Bing...Have tested a ton of various beta apps on my device, and will patiently await these glitches to hopefully be rectified...lol
