One of the first applications that I recommend to everyone using a BlackBerry is Beyond411 (formerly, Berry411). The developer, Phil Bogle, moved to an iPhone recently and is almost done porting the app to the iPhone as iPhone411.
Phil posts a blog entry detailing the features and includes a screencast. Features include:
- Find nearby local business information by name or category
- – 20,000 word autocomplete dictionary
- – 500 item directory of popular businesses
- – Fast list interface
- * Everything you need to know without leaving the app
- – Driving directions
- – Reviews, Images, Web Links with inline browser
- – Call Business
- – Show directions in Google maps
