Customer Reviews
Great Finally!!!
I loved this application in the Palm, definetely it was the best travel application. Unfortunately, this application came late and now the application must provide at least the following functions to be competitive with other existing applications:
1.-Timely flight tracking - provide Airlines website, phone numbers etc, display flight map (You can get all this in applications that cost only .99 cents
2.-Include travel packing checklist
3.-Provide size information for clothing i.e. dress, shoes, pants etc based on region
4.-Ability to customize home page - not all the time I will have an itinerary. The home page should display the preferences of the user
5.-Five time clocks with relevant weather information - Time calc function set a specific time and see what time is in different time zones
6.-International dial in prefixes
7.-Weather information for a given country or selections i.e. 5 and 10 day weather forecast
8.-Map that shows daylight and night zones - witht he functionality to select countries
9-Ability to store travel information such as passport, membership numbers, etc
10-Ability to email information (Itinerary) to other parties
11.-FX rates should be for more than 2 currencies at a time and provide at least 4 decimals - two decimals simply does not work. Other applications are very good with FX rates
12.-Keep track of the countries you have visited with a visual display - you can use the daylight / night zones map but hilight the countries visited
Not all these functionalities should me on the gold membership - as mentioned before other good applications provide this capabilities for only. 99 cents. There is a benefit to centralize all of them in one application but that does not simply justify a high price
Thanks.
I like it - yet needs work
I used it on my Treo pro but then as now it is frustrating that you can not edit on th phone. Also when you update it needs to be smart enough to get rid of the old one and save the new one.
Wonderful program
This is great program on the blackberry and on the iPhone it is any better and the planned upgrades this year for the iPhone should be even better
