"The most useful blackberry app EVER!!!"
Pros
Voice search, GPS function, auto location update, quick link to Gmailm news and other google apps.
Cons
None that annoy me enough to list. If i must specify a con, I have to sometimes repeat my search criteria before it gets it right.
Summary
I am a Blackberry Bold user on AT&T (3G). I use this app almost daily for locating and/or retriieving phone numbers for restaurants, shops, schools, and libraries. It saves me so much time because I don't have to be tethered to my desktop or laptop to locate info on the go. I can just hop in the car and speak, locate, and call while driving. I especially like that it locates businesses within close proximity to your present location.
The GPS works well. I used it yesterday to locate the high school where my son's basketball team played. It is a new school located beyond the suburbs. It took me straight to it with no problem.
Sometime, I do have to repeat my search criteria before it gets the search result right, but I won't complain. You get soooo much functionality for FREE, you just can't complain too much. You just have to be careful to speak slowly and enunciate your words.
