Bing in Mango is to receive the addition of a location based service called Local Scout. This service, upon activation, will search and display local places to eat, drink, shop and explore. Users will be able to save certain individual results to their favorites.

What's even better about this feature is the integration (which is a focus with Mango) it has with Mail and Calendar. Should you receive an invitation via email or have one synchronized in your calendar, simply selecting that location will open up Local Scout which will show points of interest.
