Geo 2.0<BR>Public Beta Mobile Geo 2.0, Now Available<BR>Compatible with Mobile
Speak 4.0 and Running Sendero GPS 6.2<BR>Terrassa (Barcelona), Spain, January
28, 2010<BR>Public beta version 2.0 of Mobile Geo, Code Factory's award-winning
GPS<BR>navigation<BR>aid for the blind and visually impaired, is now available
for download and<BR>purchase.<BR>Public beta Mobile Geo 2.0 is compatible with
the highly anticipated Mobile<BR>Speak<BR>4.0 as well as the latest version of
the Sendero Group's GPS technology, SDK<BR>6.2.<BR>"This upgrade of Geo is the
first part of version 2.0. For us, there were<BR>two priorities:<BR>first to
integrate the new Sendero SDK and updated maps as soon as
possible;<BR>and,<BR>second to launch Mobile Geo 2.0 at the same time as Mobile
Speak 4.0 so that<BR>none<BR>of our users would be left without their
inseparable GPS" explains Eduard<BR>Sánchez,<BR>Code Factory's CEO. "We decided
to launch version 2.0 as a public beta<BR>because we<BR>are still testing and
making improvements. Therefore the public beta means<BR>that in<BR>the next
couple of months we will release several free updates. For example<BR>we
already<BR>can announce that we will include more Top Ten demanded features such
as<BR>manual route<BR>creation, new verbosity settings, new ways to organize and
manage favorites,<BR>address<BR>search by zip/postal codes, and more".<BR>This
first part of public beta Mobile Geo 2.0 includes new features
which<BR>improve<BR>the Geo navigation experience, such as:<BR>Advanced address
search which allows you to enter any part of the address to<BR>search<BR>for it
faster.<BR>Five times faster route creation when in Turns Only mode.<BR>More
accurate distances and estimated time of arrival calculations.<BR>Improved
heading averaging when walking in a big city with narrow streets<BR>and
high<BR>buildings.<BR>More information about the current street when using the
where am I<BR>function, such<BR>as pedestrian only, split street, one-way,
bridge, tunnel, etc.<BR>Ability to look up alpha numeric address numbers. For
example 23A Jones<BR>Street where<BR>23A is the address number.<BR>Another great
benefit from public beta Mobile Geo 2.0 is the updated 2009<BR>maps and<BR>POIs
as well as new map bundles. If you are living in one of the
countries<BR>included<BR>in a map bundle, you will receive free maps for all the
other countries<BR>which are<BR>part of the same bundle.<BR>European Map
Bundle<BR> includes maps from Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France,
Germany,<BR>Ireland,<BR>Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Northern Ireland,
Norway, Poland, Portugal,<BR>Spain,<BR>Switzerland, Turkey, and the United
Kingdom.<BR>North American Map Bundle<BR>includes maps from United States,
Canada, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico<BR>and Guam.<BR>Asian Map Bundle
includes maps from Hong Kong, Singapore, and Malaysia.<BR>South African Map
Bundle includes maps from South Africa, Lesotho and<BR>Swaziland.<BR>Since
Mobile Geo 1.5, new countries have also been added, such as
Lesotho,<BR>Luxembourg,<BR>Mexico, Poland, Turkey, South Africa, and
Swaziland.<BR>Public beta Mobile Geo 2.0 supports the same new devices as Mobile
Speak 4.0<BR>for<BR>Windows Mobile. Among the newly supported devices you will
find the HTC<BR>Touch Pro<BR>2, HTC Touch 2, HTC Touch Diamond 2, AT&T Titl
