I just downloaded and setup World mate Live from mobile.blackberry.com. I made a free account and it seems to be a great addition to my blackberry. The interface is really nice and smooth and the application works great. I was able to make an itinerary online and have it successful sync to my blackberry.

Is it being offered as shareware?

Okay. I see that it is like Pocket Express. Some features always remain free while other parts require a subscription after the trial period. I am uninstalling it.

Just got back from a business trip to various cities in Europe. I have the paid version and I love it. Auto real time notification of flight status,flight delays and alternate flights is worth the price if you travel.

I travel often for work and I like World Mate Live. It is easy to use. Well worth the $9.99 a month. I used Pocket Express, too many options I did not need.

Are these automatic push alerts? or do you have to manually make it update or pull down alerts?

The paid version includes automatic alerts -- worth every penny!

I started using it when it was in the beta version. I love it and I used it to track travel plan for my wife's trip. I have a vacation trip coming up in a week and I will try to use it. So far, I have organized all my events, bookings and etc in WorldMate live.

When I became a Gold Member, they gave me a promotion code for a 20% discount. I actually think it's still open so if any of you want to subscribe as well here is the code: 971922

Let me know if it works out. www.wmlive.com

I have been using this application for the last few weeks and they really did a good job on it.
