PDA app for directions

I have a smart phone that incorporates, among other things, internet explorer. I recently ran across a couple web based applications that can be run from my PDA. The two great applications work with Windows Mobile for mapping and finding locations, and both work with or without GPS. Using Internet Explorer on your mobile device, just go to the following websites. (These links only work on your PDA.)

Google Maps google.com/gmm

Local information, directions and maps

Get Google Maps with My Location and find out where you are. Find the nearest…cup of coffee, late-night pizza or last-minute bouquet. Find out if there is traffic up ahead and how to avoid it. Type your destination and get directions

Windows Live Search wls.live.com

Local information and navigation

Find local businesses and restaurants, and click to call them. Get turn-by-turn driving directions. Explore interactive maps with satellite imagery. View current traffic information and find cheap gas stations. See movie show times by theaters.

  1. Don’t Need WM or IE

    I’ve been using Google Maps on the Palm system for a while. Both of Matt’s suggestions work fine in non-Windows environments.

    I’ve found Windows Live Search to be less friendly to the mobile confines, though, but it has been a while since I used, and improvements may have been made.
