Download of the week: Metro for Most Smart Phones (Not The iPhone)
We bring you this free little known program for handhelds for independence day: metro.
i have been using this wonderful app going back to my palm Vx. it works on palm, pocket pc, smartphones almost everything except the iphone. Its really small does not use a lot of memory. Truly can be a life saver when you are lost on a train – Anywhere!
in case you haven’t guessed it it is a update able train database and gui to get you to your transit destinations – worldwide. yes siree it will navigate your trains tubes subways and such and give you shortest destination or least amounts of transfers. check it out here: they are constantly updating it and it hasn’t failed me yet.
very handy to find alternate routes or as an addition to any tourist guide.
