Virtual Earth Mobile 1.67 Released
Posted by Darius Wey in "SOFTWARE" @ 04:00 AM
"Recently there was a change to the Virtual Earth server that required a change to Virtual Earth Mobile in order for "Find Business" to work. Attached to this blog entry is the updated version that fixes this. In this version, I've also added support for colored traffic overlays. If you choose "Map Type/ Traffic" you'll see major roads highlighted in red, yellow, or green, indicating how fast the traffic is moving. (Red = 0-25 mph; Yellow = 25-45mph; Green = 45 mph or faster) For now, I expire the traffic data when you exit the app. Eventually I plan to have a smarter, timed expiration. Traffic data is provided by Traffic.com and is available in selected major metropolitan areas in the United States."
The latest release of Virtual Earth Mobile (v1.67) includes a compatibility update for recent changes made to the Virtual Earth servers, and also, traffic support! If you've not yet tried Virtual Earth Mobile, its price tag alone ($0.00) should be a good enough reason to give it a go. :)
