Re: Directory Assistance 411 for WM6?

goog411 has some pretty cool features, like once you say your city and state and , lets say "Pizza Delivery" it will give you choices, if you didnt give a name of a specific pizza place....You can also say "Map It" and it will send you a google map link, Or "Text IT" will send you a text message with information about the selection you made...number, address...etc.....Check out this Link it has a small video of some of the features!

And Here is a good "Contacts Picture" for it


Have Fun,

Re: Directory Assistance 411 for WM6?

Just fire up Opera Browser, go to Google, and enter in whatever business, (or government), name you want, along with the city and state. That is the most effective "411 service" that I have found. And if you need to reverse look up a phone number www.anywho.com/rl . The purpose of having a PDA phone is having instant access to unlimited information when you need/want it. Modern WM devices are more of a pocket computer then they are a phone. Why not utilize the funcions of the computer? To use it for only placing calls is like using a computer biult with a AMD Phenom X4, with 8GB of RAM, a Geforce 9800 GX2 video card, and 4TB of SATA 300 storage for nothing more then checking your email.

Re: Directory Assistance 411 for WM6?

Here, maybe this is more like what you are after my friend. Unfortunately every link I've found is dead so far. Same makers as Pocket Informant. Sorry I can't provide you with a .cab. Surely someone out ther has a copy of it. Or someone who's bored or has extra time, could possibly code a newer version of it.

Bogles 411 Description

This application is made to give you instant access to online content like yellow pages, Google, weather, encyclopedia, and Froogle results.

This application is based on Berry 411 which provides free and convenient local search on Blackberry devices. The results are formatted to fit your windows mobile powered device screen and yeah It’s cheaper and more effective than calling 411.

Select from the following types of searches:
* Yellow Pages let you find local businesses by name or category.
* White pages searches residential listings.
* Google searches Google, with results conveniently formatted to fit your screen.
