Glad to see they (ahem... *we*) got the new mobile app out finally. And they took a lot of suggestions on improvements.

I went back to the old bing.
With the old bing, I got quick access to my movie theaters and what movies are playing in it. With the new one, it lists movies that are playing in theaters 60 miles away from me and it's to cumbersome to get to.

The old one had Gas Prices with one click. The new one doesn't.

The new bing has very crappy scrolling: slow, unresponsive, choppy. And when you have a really long list, you can't accelerate down, you have to slowly move the choppy screen up, and up, and up etc. Fail!

I haven't managed to put my movie theaters in the favorites. It just doesn't stick. It gets no local news feeds.

I take useful & ugly over pretty and useless.

On top of that the absolute best feature ever is missing... gas prices. WTF!?.

New Bing = Suck

Oh, I didn't realize we had suggested they BREAK the things we wanted it to do.

NEW BING = FAIL

Ok can someone post the cab for the old bing? I never tried the old bing but went right to the new one but wanted to try the old. Does the old one have speak option too?

Haha I agree with you and him on this one. Went back to the old one b/c the new one removed to many awesome features. One thing the New BING did do, give me a greater appreciation for the older one. lol
