Re: does the tuch pro have a similar app?

When I want to decide on where to go I just think of the 1,000 restaurants in the Phoenix area and pick one from my head...

My problem with an app like that is I would end up shaking the darn thing until something came up that I wanted to go to.

Re: does the tuch pro have a similar app?

agreed but it would be nice to limit the area and how much money you want to spend to kinda have something point you in the right direction

Re: does the tuch pro have a similar app?

It would be nice if someone could create an app or script or something that would basically put a random input into the Live Search, though. I agree with the people talking about how it is sometimes hard for a group of people to not only think up places to go, but to actually agree on which one to go to. Even without the gimmicky "shake and choose" it would be nice to have a "random restaurant generator".

Yes, could flip a coin, and I've actually done that before, with a friend while we were driving home and couldn't figure out what to eat. We actually made a "tournament" bracket of 16 places that we could think of, and flipped coins to decide the "winners", and eventually came down to a place. Something like this would be nice to automate teh whole thing.

Re: does the tuch pro have a similar app?

I totally understand why people would want this app and I think some others are missing the point of what people are asking about and are just focusing their iphone hatred. Yes it is a gimmick, as most apple products are, but you know it is nice sometimes to play with that gimmick. I HATE iphones and ipods and macs, but I have to hand it to them, they appeal to the masses with simple GUI and fun gimmicks that sell. So on to my point about this app. I too sometimes would just like to be a little suprised at what to eat at a given night, and this especially works well with a group of friends or family that all may have a little different cravings. Also on my own too, as sometimes I get bored of food and the things I can think to eat on my own. So given that situation where you really don't know the type of food then instead of using windows live and not being able to narrow down the list (which gave you a list of a hundred restaurants b/c you didn't specify), you may get a cool choice randomly if you had this app. Not dissin windows live but to say that's the endall source to use to me is like sayin complex functionality is best suited for everyone. It would be nice to have a clone program, or better yet make a better one for windows mobile divices so i can walk up to that iphone user and say what *****, your **** is inferior to my similar app!

Re: does the tuch pro have a similar app?

So I guess there hasnt been any more thought put into this by the devs. I would be neat to have a WinMo app that uses either GLmaps or Live Search to find nearby restaurants.
