But if you want to see what the weather is doing in more than 3 spots for your upcoming trips, you'll be on that new p. o. s. for 10 minutes now!
Why do they have to take something good, and "Fix IT"??
These tech nerds really pizz me off!
Which version of Android?
4.1 and 4.2 has Google Now, which has customized cards to pre fetch what you want to know (before you even know what you want). Mine gives me weather at home and the four corners, drive time to work and home, etc ... also I can just say a Delta flight number at it and it will provide up to date gate and status info.
Which phone you got? If you have an S2 you can download an installer for 4.2 from Samsung. I went through the house jailbreaking everything to stock 4.2 last week and the upgrade really breathed new life into the tablets and phones.
And for you poor lost souls who use those quaint, anachronistic, Apple products ... you can run Google Now too .... Google does not care what you run their search engine on, just as long as you run their search engine :-)
