If you are a fan of the Zagat city guides then Zagat To Go is a sure hit.如果你是一个范的zagat城市指南，然后zagat To Go是肯定击中。 The application provides you mobile access to all of the 240,000 restaurant and nightclub ratings for over 70 cities.应用为您提供移动接入，以所有的24.0万餐厅和夜总会的收视率超过七成的城市。 I personally found the program useful but sluggish.我个人发现，该程序有用的，但呆滞。 Every screen you click through has to be downloaded since none of the information is stored locally on the device.每一个屏幕上，你通过点击已被下载以来的任何信息，是本地存储设备。 This gets even more frustrating since the ratings for nightclubs and restaurants are each in separate guides so you have to wait for each to download when you switch between the two.这得到更令人沮丧以来，收视率为夜总会和餐馆均在单独的指导，使你必须等待，每个下载当您切换两者之间。 In short the content in Zagat To Go is great but the interface and delivery system brings the whole application down.在简短的内容在zagat To Go是伟大，但界面和配送系统，使整个应用程序。 If you are interested read the full in depth review after the jump.如果您有兴趣阅读fullâ在深入检讨后，跳转。
First Impressions: The download and purchase of Zagat To Go was actually quite complicated due to the fact that the software is registered to your cellphone number. 第一印象：下载并购买zagat去，实际上是相当复杂，由于事实上该软件是注册到您的手机号码。 It required an email to customer service to get it to work.它需要一个电子邮件到客户服务，以获得它的工作。 After that was done the program looks a bit unrefined but does pack some good information.之后，这是做程序看起来有点unrefined ，但并包一些好的信息。

The Interface: When you first open the program there is a wizard that automatically sets up your internet connection to work on your BlackBerry. 界面：当您第一次打开程序是有精灵自动设置您的网际网路连线的工作，在您的BlackBerry上。 You will then be asked to select a guide that you wish to browse.然后，您将被要求选择指南你想浏览。 In the example above I selected the New York restaurant guide.例如，在上述允诺，我选择了新的纽约餐馆指南。 Notice in the example above there are separate guides for New Orleans nightclubs and restaurants which is the case for many cities.通知在上面的例子中有不同的指南，新的新奥尔良夜总会和餐馆，这是个案，为许多城市。 Once you select the guide you will have to wait about 20 seconds for the guide to download. Once that is done you will see the main home screen above.一旦您选择引导你将不得不等待大约20秒指南download.â一旦做到这一点，您将看到的主要主屏幕以上。 This gives you access to the main directories of ratings and reviews.这可让您使用的主要目录的评级和评论。 You can switch between the guides later by clicking on change guide in the menu which you can see in the second screenshot above.您可以切换之间的指南后，按一下就改变指南在菜单中你可以看到，在第二个画面以上。 The problem is that every time you switch between guides you have to wait the extra 20 seconds to re-download the guide since it does not save it on your BlackBerry.问题是，在您每次之间切换引导您要等待额外的20秒重新下载指南，因为它没有将它保存在您的BlackBerry上。

The directory options are useful as you can see in the example screenshots above.目录选项是非常有用，你可以看到，在上述的例子画面。 The main breakdowns are shown below.主要分项数字如下所示。

The first allows you to either search in basic or advanced mode as you can see above.第一次让您无论是搜寻在基本或进阶模式，你可以在上面看到的。

The second allows you to find restaurants based on characteristics of each one. You can see two examples above.第二个可以找到餐厅的基础上的特点，每个one.â你可以看到，上述两个例子。

The last lets you search based on the popularity of the location.最后，您可以搜索的基础上，受欢迎的位置。 This is bases on quite a few factors and you can choose the top list that you wish to use as a reference.这是基础上也有不少因素和您可以选择顶端的清单，您想使用作为一个参考。

Once again between each of these selections that you make you will see the download toolbar.再次相互间的这些选择您，您会看到下载工具栏。 This is because none of the information is stored locally so every request requires a new download.这是因为任何信息是存储在本地的每一个要求，所以需要一个新的下载。

Once you make a selection as you can see above you will get some very good detailed information about the restaurant or nightclub. They also include some very nifty features that I found very useful.一旦你做出选择，因为你可以在上面看到的你会得到一些很好的详细资料，餐厅或nightclub.â它们还包括一些很漂亮的特点，我发现非常有用。 The descriptions are quite good but I could not get a good screenshot of them.描述是相当不错，但我无法取得了良好的屏幕截图。

The top of each listing has two buttons allowing you to either call the location by clicking the call button or viewing a map of the location.  The maps are pretty good and allow you to zoom in and out.上方的每件物品有两个按钮，让您无论是电话的位置，按一下呼叫按钮或观看地图的location.â â地图不错，并允许您进行放大和缩小。 You can also ask for directions to and from the location.您也可以问路，并从该位置。 The downside is that there is no saved address option or GPS support so you would have to enter in the address manually each time which can get frustrating.坏处是，有没有储存的解决方案或全球定位系统的支持，所以你必须在输入地址手动，每次可以得到令人失望的。 They also offer the option of getting route information on a turn by turn basis but sadly you cannot view the map and the route information at the same time.他们还提供选项，获得路线的资料，转由之交的基础上，但可悲的，您无法查看地图和路线资料，在同一时间举行。

At the bottom of each listing you will find some cool integration options.在底部的每件物品你会发现一些很酷的整合选项。 There is a button to add the listing to your address book which I found useful.有一个按钮以添加上市，以您的地址簿，我发现有用的。 They also offer you the ability to add an item to your calendar but they do it through their interface which is not as user friendly as the native BlackBerry calendar.他们还为您提供的能力，添加一个项目到您的日历，但他们这样做，通过他们的界面，这是作为用户友好的作为本土黑莓的日历。 Last of all they also offer you the ability to send the listing by email to a friend but once again this is done through a clumsy Zagat interface that does not allow you to grab addresses from your address book.最后所有他们还为您提供的能力，把上市电邮给朋友，但再次这样做是通过一个拙劣的zagat界面，这并不让您抓斗地址从您的通讯簿。

Pros: 利弊：

• Wireless access to Zagat ratings and reviews无线接入zagat收视率和评语
• Good search options良好的搜索选项
• Useful integration with BlackBerry functions such as calendar and address book有用的一体化与黑莓功能，如行事历和通讯录
• Ability to map out a location能力地图了一个位置

Cons: 意见：

• Subscription payment means you have to pay each year订阅支付方式，你必须支付每年
• Nothing is stored locally so downloading is required for all content什么是存储在本地，以便下载所需的所有内容
• No integration to email to an address book contact没有一体化，以电邮给一地址簿联系人
• Clumsy activation process拙劣的激活过程

Conclusion: In truth I would highly recommend Zagat To Go to all professionals who would otherwise be carrying a paperback Zagat guide. 结论：在真理，我会强烈建议zagat到所有专业人士谁，否则携带一本平装zagat指南。 Personally I found that using我个人发现使用 Beyond411 beyond411 got me results that were almost as good in half the time it took to even start Zagat To Go.我得到的结果几乎一样好了一半，所花费的时间，甚至开始zagat去。 The interface for Zagat To Go is a bit clumsy all around and could use refinement.接口zagat To Go是有点拙劣的所有靠近，并可能使用细化。 I found that it had great in depth ratings and content on each of the locations but the presentation and accessibility left me wanting. I really wish they found a way to cache the listings locally so that searching would be an easier process since currently every selection requires communication with the server. Hopefully Zagat will get a GUI (Graphic User Interface) expert to help them redesign their application because the content is great but the delivery could use alot of work.我发现它有很大的，深入的评级和内容对每一个地点，但介绍和无障碍环境，给我留下wanting.â我真的希望他们找到了一种方法，缓存在本地上市，使搜索将是一个更容易processâ以来，目前每一个选择需要沟通与server.â希望zagat将得到贵（图形用户界面）的专家，帮助他们重新设计及其应用，因为内容是伟大，但可以交付使用了大量的工作。
