I was asked today if the FFB client could be run on an i-phone. I'm a tech n00b, so any ideas, anyone? |

Hmm, FFB is programmed in java and the iphone don't support that. The client has to be rewritten in Objectiv C and be available on the app store, which I don't think will happen |

If anyone ever manages to get this working, it would be the tipping point for me to get one. |

Could it be rewritten to work with Safari internet browser? Still allows it to be played on the iphone but not needing a specific app |

awesome...a new addition to blacklists....
not only will we get to blacklist cherrypickers and hypocrites...
we can blacklist cell phone users too!

ps...but on a serious note...how about we get the client out of beta phase, before we start worrying about people failing at playing over a crappy cell phone intarweb connection, hmm? |

It's bad enough that I found a decent IRC app for my iPhone... fellow interstate drivers beware: I'm not paying attention to you - I'm making fun of lizvis for defending the choice of Leader over guard, MB, dauntless and Diving Tackle. Rest assured, though, that this is worthy of getting in an accident over |

Offtopic, but Jeffro, can you please name that IRC-app?
And i don't see FFB being available on iPhone. Either it has to be completely rewritten in another programming language, or apple would have to allow sandbox-mode for java, which they never will... |

I have to say; I hate all things Apple too.
1. Get better MP3 player than an i-pod. 2. Pay 50% less for it. 3. Win.
Style over substance in all areas if you ask me. But people like them! |
