Can anyone answer my question? I just downloaded it today on my sidekick. It’s working fine, but when I’m searching for addresses, it’s not showing up correctly!!! I’m in Minnesota and it never lists results found in Minnesota, but they do for other states. Do you guys know why it’s doing this?

UPDATE! Check your Catalogs, the app has been “upgraded”. This is the 1st upgraded app (or game) that I’ve seen at least where they tell you what the upgrade is, namely; “now with better map delivery”. So as per my last post on this, look like Microsoft/Danger listened to our complaints! And this was FAST. I’ve not had any futher problems with map delivery since last Saturday regardless, but I’m betting that was the server-end fix, this is the app-end fix to finish the job. So I’m downloading the upgrade now, I suggest everyone else who got this app do so also.

Well anyway the pointless bashing and flaming aside, I’m noticeing that the application is working properly again like it did at first. I wrote Danger at their support addy, didn’t expect a reply (there was none), what I did expect was for them to look into the problem and fix it. Give it more server capasity for the large volume of users (I guess they didn’t figure it would be this popular even though it’s a free app!) or whatever. I guess enough other people also wrote them, because my email was “answered” by them getting the app back running like it should. So good job Microsoft-Danger!

I love how people come here and say how great their iPhone is. The battery and typing SUCK. You can’t send pic messages and it crashes frequently. You like the iPhone, we like the Sidekick. We like to type, you like to touch. I have a SK08 AND an iPod touch 2nd gen and I would kill myself if I had to type on the touch. Stop obsessing over a supposedly inferior phone by coming to a site devoted to it. Stop hating, there’s an app for that.
