No initial WAP support?! But that’s the only platform this makes any sense. Doesn’t all the iPhone love pretty much signal that the end of the mobile version of the web is nigh? This would have been a very good idea 5 years ago . . .

Farhan,

Been testing your service. How about adding support for local address and real time GPS information.

We have an ultra thin client for Windows Mobile (<200K) that allows you to do all of that in real time. All you need on the server side is Mod_Mobile (an 80K plug-in module).

The beauty of this is that it would allow AOL to deliver local contextual ads based on GPS location rather than Zip code. Much more compelling and a much higher CPM

You can find out more on our web site... www.5o9inc.com

Pretty good. Very US centric, won’t work well in Europe. No support for GPS enabled local search (we’ve been doing that inside the mobile browser for a year (link) )

Cheers,

Peter

Google may have won the fixed line search sweepstakes, but mobile search remains an open territory, for anyone to conquer — countless start-ups, Yahoo, Nokia.

HI thanks for this. I just tested it here in Germany and the search is the same as the old one. Is this US centric only or it there a special URL only for BETA testers.

Any more would be greatly appreciated! bena
