This turned me to try Windows Live... I am liking the gas prices deal (even though I already know where they are in my town.. I can always use it in different cities)

I seem to like google maps a little better, although no voice commands. I like how you can go to your contacts, click on a contact, and then click "find on google maps", providing you have that contacts address stored in your contact info. As far as i know, windows live doesnt seem to have that.

How would I find Gas prices and movie times on Google maps?

you listed the programs, now where are the links please? :)

I went looking for these this morning:

Live Search (and some other MS stuff)

Quick Menu

*it is a zip file at the end of the first post

I have not installed any except for Live Search and all normal caveats apply.

Consume And Enjoy
Ks.

I dont think windows live search use to do this but it does now. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Even though it's not a program, PPCGeeks (#1) would be on top list of favorite 5...imagine Mogul life without it?

Live Search (#2), as stated, simply the best road app available!

The "threaded SMS" (#3) app for WM6 is a must have if you do any texting ....

myMobiler (#4) for SURE if you are any kind of customizer (as I am sure we all are?)...

Trying QuickMenu now, still undecided between PHM regedit and Total Commander for # 5 (and possibly quick menu after review)

I am trying QuickMenu and it seems to have stomped my dotFred Task Manager, the icon for dotFredTask Manager is missing from the upper right corner anyway.

I have turned off the battery icon that Q puts up but the dotFred Task Manager icon is still not there.

Anyone have both running?

quick menu is worth it just to close out programs with 1 click. love it.

Quick Menu is a must have! I install in every PPC or Touch I sell, it really curbs the very common complaints most Smartphone newbies have with Pocket PC's.
