Yeah the google maps work great. I love that you can pull up a map of your location, and then create starting and end points to get directions. The only thing is that it gives you driving directions and i almost followed them on foot one time. lol

Thanks to all of you for your great input. I installed google maps, and it works like a charm. I love that you can move the screen around, and it redraws the map area. It also gave me very accurate information for some of the search categories in my area. All of the pizza places were there including a new one.

The only thing that happened when I tried to use Opera Mini beta was it couldn't find my phone to know which cab to download. I used IE instead, and it worked fine. Again, thank you for all of your help.

So you guys all like it better that Live Search?

they are both good programs. i cant say I like one better than the other. I do however love the movie theater feater on the live search. comes in handy.

I didn't load the new Live Search as I read on a couple other sites some people had problems with the new version. Any of you who have the new version of Live Search encountering any problems? I'll try it if you all think it won't cause any problems.

I just installed Live Search a couple days ago and LOVE it. It is 100x better than Google Maps. I really didn't think it would be and that's why it took so long for me to install it while I installed Google Maps right when I got my phone. Honestly, Live Search works much better. Just much nicer to use and way more features.

What site do I go to to download Live Search? Any special installation tips?

No real tips. Very easy to install. Just download and run. Works great for me so far. And umm... Haha, apparently I can't post links because I just started here. Just search for "windows live search for mobile" in google. It'll be there.

I like google maps better personally. I have live search but I found it to be not as up to date in terms of searching for businesses and stuff. the movie search is great so I use it for that.

the sprint mogul i have cam with a live serach entry block on the home screen. type in something an it opens a browser and gives you the results. Is there a standalone appa dn is it any better?
