Neat little app. I'm not sure I'd every buy it for $5...but for $0.99? Yeah, okay. You got me

Only one week (through Feb 12th!), so jump in on it now.

lol, no need to apologize.

Fact is, I don't use MS Live (I assume you are talking of the search engine?). Granted the Maps part has been supplanted by Gmaps mobile.

Anyways, the point of the program is a more efficient, direct way to search for something e.g. it is "simplier" (quicker) to launch this app, type in what you are looking for and select the category (like "books" automatically searches under Amazon.com mobile; the Wiki does mobile wikipedia, etc.)

I find this much more logical than opening up my browser, going to Google and refining my search or hitting a link to go to Images, Groups, etc. I also tend to do these type of refined searches when I use Google, so this helps me tremendously by skipping lots of unneeded steps.

And for $0.99 I can't say I'm really disappointed. But to each his own!

i totally get what your saying, but i get set in my ways with things, sorta like a habit. like you said for .99 cents, it is like a sore d*@#, you cant beat it.
