iPhone / Android are "Smart Phones". The other lower end mobiles (like smart-er flip phones, and candybar style non-qwertys etc) are called "Feature Phones"

When it comes to smartphones, you have this for 2011 Q1:
http://ronnie05.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/canalys-2.jpg

When you re-adjust to remove Symbian from those stats, as well as the one-off random OSes, you basically have:
Android - 51% market share
iPhone - 27% market share
BlackBerry - 21% market share

So it might actually be worth having this run on BlackBerry, except for the fact that BlackBerry is bleeding market share like crazy, and by the time word gets out about the mobile version of LPF, BlackBerry might have substantially less.

Would love to use this when everything get's ironed out. I use the normal site on both an iPhone and iPad (1). Other then a lot of sideways scrolling it's pretty good. One issue I've run into though, is when replying to a quoted message, I can't manage to cursor down further then the text box displays.

im guessing its going to take me another month at least to ahve tihs up and running

need to wait for my app to be approvied which could take 2 weeks at least. also will need to be a lot of testing to make sure it works with other plugins i have

im glad to hear that the site does work kinda well on mobile devices. some banners expiring soon and prob wolnt have them get replaced so the site loads faster.

ill keep u all posted on the mobile project but going to take some time to get this tihng working for more details see vBulletin Mobile Suite: Mobile Community Starts Here.

peace

I would be up for some testing of your app. I have a Motorola Atrix and iPhone4 with the most up to date OS (for now)

Really? I woulda thought with forums like XDA using it that it was a pretty reliable one..

Only iPhone? Have you considered a Droid version at all?

I find it ironic that jcase is one of the most respected members of XDA!! Oh well that is a pretty big leak. I always thought encrypting passwords was a must :undecided:
