>Code Factory and Sendero Group are happy to 
>announce the release of Mobile Geo version 1.5. 
>This is a free update for users of version 1, 
>which was released just last September. In the 
>tradition of Sendero and Code Factory product 
>development, the feedback from Geo users has 
>been quickly incorporated into version 1.5 to 
>include support for Microsoft Voice Command, new 
>setting to define the maximum speed to announce 
>approaching intersections, pedometer function to 
>keep track of the traveled distance, new map and 
>POI data, and many new ways to work with those 
>points of interest. It makes most sense to hear 
>about the points of interest in your direction 
>of travel, something unique to Mobile Geo and the latest Sendero GPS products.
>
>The portability and convenience of GPS in your 
>Windows Mobile device is unparalleled, 
>especially given the latest Geo features. Also 
>unique to Geo are the vibration alerts. The 
>automatic lookaround capabilities of Geo far 
>outstrip other GPS phones, not to mention the 
>Explore mode of Mobile Geo based on 9 years of 
>Sendero GPS and talking map development.
>
>If you don't already have a Windows Mobile 
>phone, it is well worth obtaining one in order 
>to have the many benefits of Code Factory's Mobile Geo accessible GPS.
