Anyone using ORB with their Captivate ?

Does ORB work with the Samsung Captivate ? I was at the AT&T store today and i tried the test.orb.com test link and none of them was able to stream video. I then installed the free ORB app from the marketplace but then i realized my PC at home was not running ORB at the time so i couldn't test it.

Also when using BING for navigation, does it have turn by turn voice like it does for Windows Mobile ?

Thanks (...soon to-be Captivate owner)
 
Yea orb does work for the Captivate but the quality isn't the best. The android version of orb unfortunately does not have a quality slider like the iPhone version does.

Even when GPS is fixed in this phone, I dont see why you would use Bing for navigation over the already free and awesome Google Navigation.

Thanks for that video, looks great. I just placed my order for one. $79.99 (upgrade) from Amazon. They also have it for 0.01 if your a new customer. Can't wait to get it. I guess i will have alot of reading to do being a WM user for a long time ;)

just dont expect the GPS to be perfect, its a known problem on all Samsung Galaxy S phones and hopefully a fix will be out next month.
