Any interest in a BlackBerry Cigar application? - Page 2

Jordan,

As you probably know, I am the author of Mobile Stogie for the iPhone. I've had quite a few emails asking for a blackberry version, so I know there is demand out there. I have considered porting to Android, but don't really have the time to do so. 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

Cant wait to see the end result.

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.

Progress is happening. Still too soon to quote a release date.

The initial page alone looks great Jordan.

dwoodward · 07-22-2010, 01:35 PM

I just switched from Blackberry to Droid so another vote for Droid lol.

chicken · 07-22-2010, 08:35 PM

That looks fantastic!

neoflex · 07-22-2010, 08:42 PM

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.

JE3146 · 07-22-2010, 10:03 PM

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His version is so outdated already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
