Blackberry Pearl Gets Google Voice Search for Mobile Maps
If you’re a Blackberry Pearl user in the US, then you have a new way to conduct searches on Google Mobile Maps: voice search. The feature has been made available for models 8110, 8120, and 8130. The Google Mobile Team says the feature is experimental and should improve better over time as more and more people use it.
And here’s how to access the feature on the device, according to the Official Google Mobile blog:
1. Press “0” to center the map view around your location
2. Press the left-side key and hold it while you say the name or type of business you’re looking for (for example, “pizza”)
3. When you’re done speaking, release the left-side key, and our voice recognition technology will figure out your request and find the business you’ve been looking for, no typing needed.
Do you have a Blackberry Pearl and have tried out the voice search for Google mobile maps? Let us know in the comments.
