Bing For Mobile Updated With Support For BlackBerry OS 6, Image Search, Homepage Hotspots & More!




By Mauricio

It’s been over two years since the Bing team last pushed out an update (that we mentioned) for their BlackBerry application. Today they released updated to the app to be compatible with devices running BlackBerry OS 6 as well as a few other new features:

  • Homepage Hotspots:
    If you have a little time to spend and want to explore the day’s image, point around it until you find a hotspot. Hidden in the image, hotspots are intended intrigue and inform you. If you look, you’ll find four of them every day. Each gives you a chance to find out more about the subject of the image.
  • Flight Status Instant Answer:
    Never miss a flight again.  Simply enter your flight number and Bing for mobile will provide you with the status at a glance.
  • Bing Image Search:
    Find the perfect image while you’re on the go.  Bing Image Search provides you with gorgeously rendered images formatted for easy viewing on your phone.
  • “What’s Nearby”:
    Bing for Mobile has a smart experience for finding local listings like restaurants and attractions using your location to serve up “what’s nearby.”

Apparently the app was also updated in September 2010 with access to Bing Maps and other optimizations. According to the Bing team, this app is now available for the Curve 8520/8530, Bold 9000, Storm 9530 and Storm2 9550, Tour 9630, Bold 9650 and Torch 9800. To download the updated Bing for Mobile app go to m.bing.com from your BlackBerry browser or search for it in the App World.
