3 things, all of which may or may not have any basis in fact whatsoever
1) I can see the future
2) Notwithstanding my ability to predict the future, it took me ages to dig my ancient iPhone out of the place I had left it to rot
3) I have seen the future of Seabreeze.com.au, and it is good
More drip feeding of screen shots to come over the coming days
I will post screen shots both in the thread and also in this first post.
My phone has windows mobile and it can connect to the ISP dataport on the serial firewall thing, and I can retrieve electronic mails sent to me, but I can't reply.
yep i use a htc windows phone to access seabreeze via internet explorer also.
a lot slicker than an iphone and as mentioned above interfaces with windows pc and runs apps with no issues.
think i'm in love.....oh and it's free with your plan.
It's good how they can put live information directly on the tiles hey? More like 'windows' than the 'closed doors' of iPhone icons...
It's great fun building the app, and yes, aiming to support Android & Windows in good time. As iPhone's are far and away the most popular, Apple is the platform that gets attention first.
Regards the "existing" mobile app .. yes, by all means - point your mobile browser at m.seabreeze.com.au and you'll get a sweet cut down view of the site (no top or side pesky menus) and minimal bandwidth usage. (Or continue to use the full site).
There's a link at the very bottom of every page (quite hidden) titled "Mobile Weather Site" which you can click on, inside your mobile's browser (to save you typing).
Regards iphone -vs- htc -vs- windows. Yes, they all have inbuilt browsers which are excellent, and get the job done perfectly well. After experiencing the goodness of a dedicated app, Apps are definitely the way to go, plus, the App will feature some new groovy stuff, but more on that when it's more reality than imagination!
Enjoy .. Loz
