Live Search Video Demonstration

Do you use Live Search? Have you updated it recently? I hope so because there is a very cool NEW Voice Recognition feature included and it just works perfectly (as long as you don’t mumble).
Live Search for Windows Mobile with voice input. The updated Live Search for Windows Mobile 5.0 and 6.0 will be available for download for free on Tuesday, Oct. 16, and now includes voice input (beta version), gas prices, and hours of operation for businesses. The service can also use Global Positioning System (GPS) data on GPS-enabled phones to provide location-aware local search for customers.
So you have it and it’s on your device but how do you use it? Well there are two videos available for you to see that are well worth watching to make your ability to Experience Mobility with Live Search easier. Check out the first MSN Video here. It’s about 8 minutes long.
So you don’t have 8 minutes? Then there is a shorter Video here (about 2 minutes) that gives a nice glimpse into the voice recognition features.
































This is a well featured tool, however “SMS to a Friend” functionality will not work with the Motorola Q line (Any of them). Also, when connected to an external GPS, the unit sometimes causes conflicts and it’s not the BT connection.
