I've requested the beta android version to give this a spin.

I'm hoping this christmas we will have valid android tablets as well!
 
Now that the Android version is out, I won't get any work done at all while at work and I'll loose my job and have to burn pen blanks in the fireplace in order to stay warm this winter.

But as long as I keep my phone activated, I have plenty of wood.....
 
I got a Droid about a week ago and one of the first things I did was download Forum Runner. It is just TOO COOL! :good:
 
Well since I won't be getting any Blackberry loving for this site. My Verizon service is ready for their upgrade this month. Might have to go to a Droid phone just to do whatever this Forum Runner thing is.

Mike what droid do you have and what service?

I assume people like using this Forum Runner app to connect to IAP? I know it sounds ridiculous to switch phone types all together just to use IAP but both can do pretty much what I want I guess except or that. :)

LOVE forum runner!! (I'm on iphone)... Verizon has REALLY strong rumours to be getting iphone soon, so you might want to consider that in your droid choice. Even if you don't want an iphone, if verizon gets an iphone you may see droid prices drop.

Personally I am really surprised that no one has mentioned yet the fact you are taking photos, uploading and sending messages as you drive. :)

Haven't you watched Oprah? No Phone Zone lol

Be careful man! :)

I thought about it - BUT ... picking up his phone and pushing one button to take a pic and then continuing to "dictate this as I'm driving" is probably a lot less dangerous than what most people WITHOUT phones do in their cars when they are drinking coffee and opening the lids, eating their breakfast sandwiches then looking down to see what they dropped on themselves, reaching for the napkins etc etc. . . Not to mention the women I see every morning putting on their make-up, men shaving (cordless electrics guys :eek:) all in the name of saving 5 minutes ....

I'll give Curtis this one .. he's probably got the safest cell phone I've heard of since he is actually dictating to it - making it hands free etc from the sound of it.

Larry,

I have a Motorola Droid 2 and I'm with Verizon.

Your biggest decision will be size of the screen and whether you want a keyboard. I love my original Droid, its literally like having a computer in your pocket. I can edit my google docs from my phone, keep a grocery list, all sorts of text files with information like what size the windows are, or how big a room is.

Being able to check out the latest IAP while sitting and waiting for my wife to come out of a store is just too cool.

I've just started playing with Nook and Kindle apps on my phone and you could read a book reasonably well on there if you wanted. Especially if you go with a larger screen size like a Droid X (no keyboard, only on screen)

The dictating what you want to type works pretty well, speak slower and clearly and it's darn accurate. You MUST have service as it off loads it to the cloud.
 
Curtis looks like you didn't sign Opah's Pledge sheet not to drive and use cell phone's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
 
yep, mark it as a favorite when you search it down. Then it will be on the favorites list at the beginning of opening the the program.
 
Just loaded the paid version on my DroidX a little while ago...everything seems to be working great so far..!!...heck, i might not even be angry next time i get stuck in traffic :)

texting and driving?????!!!!!! Not kewl.

It's been demonized. I've seen far worse heading to the freeway on ramp, ladies doing makeup, guys shaving, all the while watching their VISOR mirror and not the road.

Texting in Seattle traffic is deadly. Texting out on the highway when it's empty, way different.

It all comes to how long you take your eyes off the road. People spend more time looking at their radio than you spend looking at a droid dictating to it.
 
Let's get this back on track since it is an announcement for a forum enhancement and not a discussion of texting and driving. Thanks.

I absolutely love using Forum Runner on my iPad. I subscribe to threads that interest me and get a notification when a post is made or when someone leaves me a PM. I have been so much more active over the past month and REALLY enjoyed the Bash because it was so easy to keep track of the threads I was a part of.

The only challenge now is actually GETTING the iPad from my daughter, which, by the way, is why this message is NOT being done through Forum Runner.

Thanks for getting the IAP set up with Forum Runner! It's fantastic!
