hey everyone Daniel Webster here from Pacquiao calm and today I wish you a l'acqua which is location-based program which will show you events restaurants movies pretty much anything that's around your area so if I look on here I have many different categories and as you can see there's a number next to them this one says 1025 1410 so these are all different categories and events and items that are actually inside of that category so if i go to yelp restaurants it'll show you which restaurants are around my area and actually give me the yelp rating so if you can see this restaurant at the top it got three and a half stars the next one got five so it goes on and on and there's many different restaurants that you can choose from so we'll go back if i want to look at yelp bars and pubs i can go here and i can see which bars and pubs are around my area and which one's got the highest ratings and go back can also see what's playing tonight so i'm going to watch a certain movie i can go to this and let's say that i wanted to watch avatar 3d i can see when the next showing is and which is the closest theater so it says that this is the closest theater to my area and that it's playing at seven and ten thirty so we'll go back so if I'm out and about i need some cash i can quickly and easily hit the ATM button it shows there's ten ATMs in my area and the closest one is 1.3 miles so go back again so if i wanted to learn about my area all i have to do is go to Wikipedia so let's say I wanted to look at the ryan house I'll have to just click on here and it will give me a little image if someone's taken a photo would actually upload it to Wikipedia and give us a little blurb about what that historical icon is so we'll go back and back again and we can also add different channels so if you wanted to add a channel here launch internet explorer or whatever your default internet browser is so l'acqua has many channels as you can see whatever you can think of to do during the weekend or whatever night you have off or whatever you want to do is pretty much on here let's say you wanted to find a redbox and that's a place where you can get DVDs all you have to just click on here so it gives you a little description about what redbox actually is easy DVD rentals no late fees renton return it over 19,000 locations so if it so I can just add this okay so now that I've added the red box I can click on this little icon and it will actually show me which locations the red boxes are located at so i would see i have fred meyers and a couple Walmart's so we can go back so I can also edit my ilaqua if I go down to menu and to edit ok so here I am on my subscribe channel so let's say I wanted to change the housing because I didn't really want that one on there I can just click on here now if i want i can either go back or i can delete the channel so i'm just going to delete it because i don't think that i would use this one very often and it's going to ask me to confirm and I'm say yes someone hit the little check mark and it will say my channel housing was removed so I'm going just go back and now I'm back to my ilaqua homepage and as you can see it deleted it and moved over the add channel so this is a l'acqua and the program is actually free and very quite convenient and this is another marketplace pick where he picks them useful and interesting applications from windows mobile marketplace thanks for watching
