Seeing how Apple has their keynote coming up, they may back up their app store approvals for a while. I hope we could have it on June 18-19 so it could be one of the first apps on our iPhones.

BTW, I don't mind paying $3 but why let the company charge for an app which they developed for YOU? Isn't their a contract that allows you to distribute it for free or get a percentage towards Xoutpost?

The developer didn't write this exclusively for Xoutpost. Although we were one of the first vBulletin sites to participate in their alpha and beta tests, the application is written to work with any forum. My main concern was providing a useful tool for our membership.

Maybe you should do what Gobbleoff said and implement the mobile function into the server so it could be used on a mobile browser as well for non iPhone users.

I agree 100%. Creating this $3 app has turned out to be nothing but more work, Xoutpost gets nothing monetarily from it, and its limited to iPhone users. Using some free and simple coding to format the site to detect a cellphone seems like it would be 10x easier and works for ALL users instead of only two phones.
