Search results are formatted to fit on your phone’s itty-bitty screen, so you can actually read them easily (a crazy idea, we know). With Local Search, you can find stuff in a specific location (Chinese restaurants in New York, for instance), and see maps with driving directions and phone numbers you can call with a single click. By the way, you need to have your own Web-enabled wireless device to use this service (you knew that, but our lawyers made us add it anyway)."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/windows-live-ideas.jpg" /><br /><br />The beta isn't ready yet, but you can sign up to be notified when it's ready to go.

this could be really handy when traveling for the holidays. I hope it is ready soon... as in 1-2 days. ;-)

If that is for hotmail, no thanks. :idontthinkso: Their spam protection is worse than Yahoo's, and Yahoo's stinks.

I'm lucky enough not to be receiving any spam through Hotmail... um, yet. :|

both mobile live services are super cool and fast. if the windows mobile 5 did not integrate hotmail into messaging, this would be my primary interface into my (now) live mail.
