		<description>My Review of Travel Channel GO.
Goods:
- Very detailed list and wide range of items on the Explore button.
- I like how the food selections in places to eat are broken out in many types and showed pretty much every local business, no matter how small.
- &quot;Show nearest on map&quot; is a great function to quickly narrow down the closest target.
- &quot;Free WiFi&quot; list is complete with business name, however, it&#039;s displayed on a non-scalable map, and numbering doesn&#039;t match list, although I assumed #1 on the map was the first on the list.

Bads:
- Maps are not resizable like Google Maps, and only sometimes show the business, not me and the business so I know where to go.
- The Directions page was quick, but it was one-third directions, two-thirds commercial from Walgreens or other sponsors.  Hard to believe the Travel Channel needs to subsidize this project with a sponsor.  &quot;Information provided by Citysearch&quot;.  Get rid of the 2 page commercials, please.
- Once I connected to my home wifi and did a find-me by &quot;internet connection&quot;, it correctly found my location.  However, earlier in the day while out and about, I got either Los Angeles, Sunnyvale, or Costa Mesa CA, although I was well connected to various wifi&#039;s, including an Apple Store.
- Checked &quot;Business Travel&quot; then ATM&#039;s, and it showed 6 in my area.  However, it was a generic label of &quot;ATM&quot; on the list, and they were numbered on the map.  No way to match the list with the map unless each is checked.
- Dots on the map should be linked to what it is.  So when I tap on green dot 1, it should take me to that item listing.
- Directions on the map should have a hilighted trail showing where to go that matches directions.  As shown, the map is too small with only a fraction of street names.
- &quot;Bus Stations&quot; I thought would show bus stops and routes, but listed taxi&#039;s, limo&#039;s, tour buses, charters, etc.  Those are good for those functions, but please add a city bus route button with maps for the bus stops and timetables.

This app has great potential, but needs some serious fine-tuning.  I look forward to using it regularly when it&#039;s tightened up.</description>
