the site renders fine on my droid's web browser.

@figlesquidge: I'm no programmer, sorry, but you have my wholehearted support :D

@snappy173: The site renders well and readably when landscaped, but I like typing on the portrait display keyboard, and these days I'm rarely at a real computer for very long, it seems.

I have absolutely no understanding of programming, etc; however, I do have an Android phone and the current site works well on the phone. Why would you have to write an app?

What would be the point?

It works fine in the Android browser (except scrolling through messages). It just would be another thing to maintain...

And one more thing to maintain means one more point of failure.

@snappy - have you tried scrolling the message box? I think you'll find that as one of the flaws in the default Droid browser.

@Draug

Have you found a solution to this? That's my only complaint with webdip on Android.

I keep meaning to try Opera Mini for the Droid. But I haven't found anything yet.

There is a tag could be added to WebDip's renderer that makes regions scrollable under Android, however.

Also have a droid. Use archived messages to see all.

Yeah its the same on an ipod/iphone. Just use the message logs, although it can be annoying

Message logs also don't have a link in the first year so you have to hand key the URL.

And Iphone/IPod has a two finger scroll that Droid doesn't.

iPhone version has much higher priority as Android is used by only a few people

Bzzzzt. Most recent statistics show the Android OS is beating the Iphone by nearly 5% of market share.

Oh, and Blackberry has the highest market share.

IPhone has 50%+ of the market share so that can't be true, since it would add up to more than 100%

Oh the joy of statistics taken out of context.

IPhone does NOT have 50%. Where do you get that figure from?

They may have 50% of AT&Ts share, but AT&T isn't 50% of the market and they are the only ones who have the iPhone.

And Spyman brings it all into context, well done. Although given Android's rise, the argument could be made that Android my be atop the list in about a year. I believe Samsung's Galaxy Tab (Their answer to the iPad) runs the Android OS as well, right?

From those numbers it appears iPhone does have the lead, but is quickly being taken over by Android. I wonder how much that'll change once the iPhone is available for networks other than AT&T. I know I heard Verizon was going to have it sometime in the future but don't know about others.

In truth we want the data about the site, which is available to kestas. However, mobile phone support isn't a high priority so its more a matter of other developers who want to do something specific (e.g. variants)

I can't find the one I saw the other day, but this is from back in November.

http://www.lunarsoft.net/news/1-frontpage/696-android-gains-against-flat-us-iphone-market-share

It shows Android at 26% and IPhone at 25% of the cell market.

Now, I want alamothe to back up his 50% market share claim. How about it, alaMouth?

iPhone is one phone. Android is an operating system that used by multiple phone manufacturers.

Point? Is it Google's fault that Apple gave in to AT&Ts demand for exclusivity? Is it Google's fault that Apple has always been a greedy, closed environment, refusing to release their OS to other platforms not controlled by them? The facts are that iPhone OS and Android are roughly even and Apple's phone OS will soon be overtaken by Android if it hasn't already. And as much as I love my Blackberry, the RIM OS will be overtaken eventually as well. It only holds its spot because it was first and it does business stuff like nobody's business.
