This reminds me of the GEM vs Windows days, when both operating systems were competing for new applications. Seems to me like iPhone is Windows…

I agree with don louie. I have a pre and I go on many dates with my boyfriend.

Those generalizations are so stupid and only show your ignorance.

Perspective needs to get some of what the her/his screen name implies.

The major problem with the “Open Table” app is that Pre owners don’t ever go on dates, and even if they did, Burger King doesn’t accept reservations.

For those that are bitching and moaning already… seriously!

They got to begin somewhere atleast be glad that u got something better than nothing.
If they don’t fit ur need then why not develop it yourselves? Its always easy to say, that is not so difficult to make, then make it happen chumps!

Major problem with “Open Table” app for Pre.

You can’t type in a restaurant name. So you can locate a restaurant by knowing in which neighborhood of a city you’re in. For example, in Philadelphia, there must be about 25 different neighborhoods – all with restaurants. So if someone said, “Hey…why don’t we make a reservation at “Restaurant A” but I don’t know in which neighborhood is”, then you have to load all restaurants in Philly and then scroll down to “Restaurant A”. That’s kinda dumb. You should be able to search for city and then type in a restaurant name. It’s not a difficult feature to produce. Actually, do we call a “search” function a “feature” anymore? It should be included, period.

2 new apps…really?

Am I happy they added new apps? yes.

But waiting all this time for only two (useless) apps is another thing.

I can look up places to eat with sprint nav.

The fliq bookmarks is nice if you have a lot of bookmarks you want to transfer from your comp to your pre. But I don’t and I doubt many others have a need to have a ton of less visited bookmarks on their pre.

Just my 2cents.
