Are there any plans to support a Blackberry application in addition to an iPhone application? How about Windows Mobile?

Amen to this. As of June 19, 2009, there were 28.5 million active blackberries in the wild. We outnumber iphone users. We want an app pretty please. :)

I would love to have this as well, I would like to see a similar experience to the home computer since my blackberry does both edge and wifi.

I'm testing new versions of the mobile apps for Symbian, Android, Blackberry, iPhone, and Windows Mobile. No ETA at this point, but they're all in the works.

OK, just so people know, mobile support for devices other than iPhones is important to me. My first priority would be Windows Mobile then Blackberry.

Thanks.

Well Adam, its been a few months? How are the Apps going? Seems to me that with 15,000,000 installed users of the Blackberry (only 9m for iPhone), that this is a great opportunity. Need testers? I have a Tour and would be willing to put up with any bugs just to try it.

I second Rick's comment - pretty please can we have a Blackberry App. I had a play with the iPhone App Today on a colleagues phone. Work provide me with a Blackberry and it would be great to access my DockStar using my phone while on the road.

Thanks

Hey Folks,

Since Adam is busy testing and I don't want to slow him down, I figured I'd get back to you on this. In the past few months we've been testing a number of phone app clients, as well as adding features to the iPhone and Android phones. As a Storm user myself, I can tell you that this is both the highest mobile priority for the company and for me.

That said, we're still in development (not ready for end user testing) on this and the other phone operating systems. We are simultaneously working on a number of priorities (aside from Symbian, Palm Pre and Windows development) but we will keep you updated on this - as soon as we have something to share we'll post it here.

While we are waiting for the Blackberry app ( storm II user myself ) is there a way to view videos from my BB with any current browser ...bolt and the like ?

@Dbaseiii - there's no technical reason why that wouldn't work, aside from bandwidth and browser limitations. I haven't tried it personally...I think you should be able to play videos with lower bitrates, h.264 encoded and that are "web friendly" (don't need to seek through the whole file).

I've not been able to use the browser on my Blackberry 8900 to log into the Pogoplug portal. It complains that the page is too big :-( Hence the urgent need for dedicated App

Cool!
Thanks Jon. I ASSuME that the two will be synced so that App World and the Zip download are always the latest versions?

As you can see I had the app working on my 8900 back in February. I've gone to use it again the other day, and it just locks up on the sign in screen. I tried un-installing and re-installing a couple of times via App World, but the same result. I today tried a re-install via Desktop Manager, and it is saying the app is not compatible with my device (yes I selected the non-touch screen variant). Any suggestions?

I have an 8900 and the desktop manager has said the same "Software is incompatible with this device". The normally occurs if you have started to use an new build of the development environment or have reverted to an old set of libraries.

I want to give a huge Kudos to Adam and the folks at Cloud Engines/PogoPlug. I heard the app was up and I couldn't see it. Apparently when they submit the app they have to designate which devices it will work on (maybe a switch in the programming, I really don't know). Anyway within 24 hours they had my device (the totally awesome 5630 Tour!) listed and then I could see it. I had a small glitch in getting it to work and again 24 hours later it was working perfectly. I now have access to all my files (3.5TB and growing) on my Blackberry.

Under the security settings turn on or off the firewall.  I noticed when mini Opera went from 4 to 5 I had to do this with my blackberry.

I downloaded it again via App World and it looks like it might be a later version / been updated and it worked again :-)
