I would recommend this application if you want to have access to current and future weather conditions at your hip, but don’t have reliable GPRS coverage, no GPRS capabilities at all, or don’t have access to a website that offers comparable information. For example, in some parts of the world you can use GPRS to access current weather conditions with a 5 day outlook, along with satellite and radar maps (AccuWeather.com fits very nicely on a Smartphone). FizzWeather does have more detailed data in some cases though."

But the free program from http://www.connectedbits.com/ is equally as good.

Not unless they've added support for places outside the United States. It's
a personal pet peeve of mine when developers don't think global enough...

The Connected Bits app is beautiful and really well designed, but useless to me in Canada. :(

Oops, shame on me.
