As for iPhones for business professionals, as of today Mobile Stogie has sold 4,266 copies, so there is demand there as well :-)

Although I'm not willing to "give away" the code to Mobile Stogie, I would be happy to offer feedback as you go through the development of your app, in terms of things that I've learned, how I connect to the online database, etc. Feel free to reach out to me if you want to discuss things with another developer.

I think it's great to see somebody tackling the app for blackberry and wish you the best of luck :-)

Much appreciated :-)

Honestly that alleviates a lot of worry for me, as I didn't want to offend, but I knew the platform desperately needed something. Luckily Android is Java as well, so it's an easy(relatively speaking) port once you get past the API differences.

I just wish I had the time and the energy to be that organized. I would check it out but I got to be honest and say I would probably never put it to good use.

Thanks for the feedback on the site :-)

Once I get some time frames in mind, I'll close this thread and make a development thread to highlight the beta process and eventually the release.

His version is so outdated already :-) I'm already parsing XML from the web server. His can't do that yet.

A lot of the work is getting the infrastructure set up and the databases designed as well as the processes to handle the data. The UI stuff takes a couple weeks at best. The BlackBerry will be second to finish, but I don't expect it to be that much longer. All depends on how much Aldrin contributes :-) He's my intern :-)
