Tech: MudApp?

Been away for a couple of days. Anyone miss me? :-) Anyroads, got me thinking, has anyone written an android or iPhone app for Mudcat? I know I can get on with my mobile browser but it is so fiddly I would rather not bother.

C'mon you guys out there! I would happily pay a couple of quid for a MudApp. Let's make some money for Max!

Cheers

Safari exists for the iPhone and will go to "New MEssages" at the click of a bookmark.

I have a browser on my Android, Amos. Don't think it is Safari but it is pretty good. As I said though it is fiddly to use with Mudcat. Typing with the on-screen keyboard probably would not be too bad but all the zooming in and out to read the text and then scroll through pages would drive me nuts if I ever used it in anger!

Surely an app that would present the topics on one screen and then enable you to pick one without zooming in would be far better? Just my opinion though - Which I guess counts for very little around here:-(
