Places Directory
The Places Directory app for the G1 is easily one of the best free applications available on the market now. It’s a great application that figures out all the businesses and places of interest close to your current location. It allows you to browse nearby places within categories such as Restaurants, Banks, ATMs, Hotels, and movie theaters. Needless to say, it makes very good use of the GPS to automatically figure out where you are when you are using the application. It pulls up directions and distances to the locations once you make your choices.
Tapping on a specific business will pull up the address and telephone number. You can dial the number with a single tap. You can also see ratings and reviews from the web. And photos of the establishment by tapping the Gallery button. It also has a mapping feature that uses Google Maps for directions. An excellent application and a must-have for any G1 owner who travels a lot or gets out into the city often.
