Train Travel with AUGMENTED REALITY and fixed Trial issue!

TT is a slick, graphical, Windows Phone 7 application which provides real-time train departure information, as well as journey planning across the UK. It harnesses the power of the Windows Phone 7 platform allowing a user to select stations through search, current location and Bing Maps, as well storing the user's favourite departures and journeys, accessible from the Train Travel hub welcome screen. In addition Train Travel utilises the live tile features allowing a user to add a journey to their Windows Phone 7 hub. 

Update for Mango (7.5):

- Create Journey reminders option and also a Reminder’s page to manage them. 
- Updated Home page
- New look Settings page
- ‘Where am i’ Augmented Reality train & underground viewer
- A number of handy tube and rail maps for viewing on the go
- Secondary tile deep linking options (for ‘Journey Planner’, ‘Twitter’, ‘Where am I’, and ‘Station Maps’ features) or rather ability to set additional shortcut tiles for TT inherent pages.
- A number of customer requested refinements to existing TT functionality (such as removing the Twitter page from Home panorama to now instead be a secondary tile)
- A number of bug fixes

    Trial issue has been fixed. The lack of care in this app is astounding. Just look at the full UK map, it upside-*******-down. This slapstick approach is frankly unacceptable. This is *** *** and don't ever buy it or any other application made by this company.

    Incredibly slow. Times out a lot and doesn't have even the mist basic usability features, such as automatically setting the return time to be at least the same date as the departure... I used return feature for first time in a long time today and despite putting tomorrow in as my outbound date it defaulted to November 2011 as my return date (which must have been last time I used it). Properly useless app. Avonade should be ashamed to put their name on it!

    Great app, now the bug has been fixed

    Increased rating back up now the fix is available. Avanade still have alot to do to justify the price. Don't normally do this but feel I need to respond to neilhewitt: don't blame Microsoft, avanade clearly didn't test the update properly. Never had this type of issue with any other app. Wonder if you have some vested interest.

    Good app following fix

    Ok as of July 2012 following a new update this app works again (on my Omnia 7). Haven't tried the new features but pleased to regain use even if it did take far too long to resolve this problem. Previous comments left for posterity below ... One star for trying to make me purchase again after update. At least four stars if this bug fixed quickly. UPDATE 14/06/2012 NEED A FURTHER STATEMENT FROM AVANDE. IT'S BEEN 3 WEEKS SINCE THE LAST ONE.

    Normal service has been resumed and this is, once again, a great app that is rich in function and easy to use.

    With the update to remove the trial issue, this app is useful again and the new features are very good.

    I'm going to give this four stars because when it works, it's great. This is a perfect example of how Microsoft's ineptitude is ruining the reputation of the app author - a fix has been available for weeks but Microsoft won't publish it. Leaving users and Avanade alike hanging. When you publish through Marketplace you are betting your business on Microsoft not screwing you... And sometimes, they do. We should be blaming them for this debacle.

    Same with me, can't use it now as it wants me to purchase again. When are we getting a fix ?!?!? EDIT still no fix, bye bye, i'm off to another app
