You missing out on a lot of good cheap software..

Not IMO....I mean really...pay 3 dollars to look at something I can see for free on my web browser..nahh. As for other apps more than likely you can find a free version and if not its not really needed:dontknow:

IMHO - I like APPS that take me out of the crappy browser and present things nicely...

true...but last I checked they did invent computers and they do an excellent job of presenting webpages in an easy to read fashion. So I guess I have the necessary patience to wait till I get near a computer to view certain pages:dontknow:

Well that's the key. Some of us don't have the patience (haha) and need to be connected at all possible times. You never know when you might miss a gem of a thread like "where do you put the poles on the lift" ;)

Really? wow.. I had no idea.. they invented computers... huh... you mean those keyboards are attached to something? And the little guys in the games are not small dwarfs living in the box?? Don't get me started on the porn... I was way off on that... haha..

And all this time I thought all those ever increasing checks I've been getting since 1984 were for just showing up for work... :)

Try working on the road - when you may not get to use one of these fancy computers and need to use your IPhone or Droid. Apps just present data in a better format for devices. And paid apps do more with less ads and stuff

A quick search this morning... apparently the mobile browser on the iPad is Safari but is identified as a mobile browser. A few recommendations said try a different browser on the iPad.

That's probably not ideal but might provide a stop gap. I'll keep digging around.

I did try a different browser, but the darn free version wouldn't let me change how it showed it up. LOL! I think it was Atomic.

Hmmm... not sure. what kind of error did you get?

Did you go to this URL:

http://tapatalk.com/bb

It also says you can install it from App World... if you have it.

I'm trying to see if someone has similar issues here:

http://tapa.tk/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=29

Yes and Yes. I tried to look at the forums too. I couldn't find it on the appworld this morning....not sure if it would be there since its still in Beta for BB. I will try again too... I heard about tapatalk on other forums and would love it for AZ, since IMHO, the mobile version sucks.

Oh and no error....just doesn't do anything. Nothing happens when I search for Alpinezone or any other forum.

I haven't had a blackberry in a while. It looks like the link downloads a .JAD file. Are you able to find that download and try installing it from there?

I couldn't really find anything definitive this afternoon when trying to troubleshoot this, sorry!

sorry... I was a Palm user from the beginning.. It's good stuff - they just were ahead of the curve and didn't become sexy fast enough. My Treo was the shti.. Before anyone knew what an Iphone,BBY or Droid were... I was doing presentations off my Palm and everything..

I'm holding off for now pending a phone upgrade in the fall.

My buddy got the app for his Driod and says it works great.

Yeah I've been using it on my Android, and i really like it. It is a couple bucks, but I think it's worth it, I use it on a few other forums I'm a part of as well.

Is AZ still using this? If so I'm going to give it a try on my phone.
