It's for a very limited market I suppose, but I would love to have this: http://www.istockmanager.com/

Also, I played "Blue Skies" ( http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/r/iPhon...iew.asp?c=9201 ) on my friends iPhone. Good mindless fun, but this probably isn't supposed to be a game thread. ?

This is a thread designed to find Windows Mobile apps that are similar or provide the same function as an app found on the iPhone, game or no.

I'd really like to see more activity from other members here helping out with this. I know there are many users where with lots of knowledge of WinMo apps out there.

Very simple and elegant.

Sherv, I think I found what you're looking for, and if I haven't, well, I'm pretty darn sure its the closest you're gonna get.
Check this out! Just enter http://rei.zumobi.com into PIE and download the cab. I got it working on my 800w so hopefully it'll work for you.

For now, I'd say the best solution is using Microsoft LiveSearch. I know it doesn't have all the features or bling of Urbanspoon but it gets the job done, and fairly well if I do say so myself. I prefer it being integrated into a maps application where I can get directions to it using GPS or save it as a contact.

OK...pardon my ignorance, but from all the reading I can find, is Pandora just a radio/MP3 playing app? I am trying to see what the attraction is, or if it is something I would be interested in, but I am drawing a blank!!

I'd definitely check it out on the desktop first just to get the full experience. Once ur hooked nothing else will suffice.

I've tried this app on my Touch and it crashes continuously... never was able to get it to work... First it had an error looking for a log file so I created one and then it would load... But once I tried to add resorts it would crash again...

Anyone else have this problem??
