Bing for Mobile with GPS navigation and turn-by-turn directions

If you've been looking for a free GPS navigation and spoken turn-by-turn directions, then you should try Bing for Mobile. Medical students are always looking for free software. Why pay money for a GPS navigation app when you can get one for free?

Bing is the Microsoft's search engine and they've made significant improvements to their mobile app for Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, and even for the iPhone. Not sure if they'll release an Android version given that Google has their own maps, their own GPS navigation with turn-by-turn directions, and their own search engine.

Google Search now supports voice input

It's about time, isn't it? Google Search now supports voice input. Speak your queries in English, Mandarin, or Japanese.  I wonder why they picked those 3 languages. What about Spanish?

Which smartphones support Google Search by Voice? Here's the list:

• Android (of course!)    
• BlackBerry      
• iPhone      
• Nokia S60 (Symbian)    
• Windows Mobile

If you're still using the antiquated Windows Mobile, you may want to try Bing which also includes voice search. The voice recognition engine isn't very robust, but who's complaining since this is a free app? I wonder how Google's voice recognition compares with Bing's.

You can get Google Mobile apps by typing:  m.google.com/search into your mobile web browser.  You can also learn more about Google Mobile apps by visiting: http://www.google.com/mobile/google-mobile-app/
