MSFT LIVE, mapping, directions on the Windows Mobile platform

Allright, if you have a WM phone, 5.0 or smartphone, I think this is a GREAT little FREE application.

I've used the google version, but actually find this MUCH better. Not sure if it is the JAVA that kills the The google version for me, or the fact that I cannot run it well on the treo 700wx, but THIS puppy rocks!
Mapping, traffic information updated every two minutes, search for anything, and DIRECTIONS from point to point, all on the phone.

I’ve got it now on the 700wx, and the DASH for about two weeks now, and it works REALLY well. I even got the #1 1K GF to run it, and she loves it.
If ONLY I could link up the BT GPS to it, that would seal the deal for me, but I have the feeling something like that may be in the works.

For now, I just have to say, I haven’t been this impressed with anything MSFT for a long time, it isn’t often that one can run something from MSFT and say, “man, this ROCKS!”
