Hi there,
I read your tweet about a redfly pap for Android.. is this true? Or did you mean windows mobile?
No this is not available to my knowledge. I was under the impression Mickey was talking about “Must have” apps as in an app that should be available on the platform. I definitely think that RedFly should be making their equipment and software for BB as well as Android, but to my knowledge only BB has currently been implemented.
Are you considering a RedFly or Android platform?
Thanks for your quick reply, I already thought I missed some news about the redfly being compatible with android. Right now I’m using a HTC hero, but i’ve been a palm user for a long time. I have a redfly (first model) but now I can’t use it and it is catching dust.
I have contacted Celiocorp about future Android support and they promised they were working don it. There is still hope for us.
Yea, that would be awesome for Android users. I am hoping they do it ASAP. I think that the RedFly is a GREAT solution for smarphone devices and if you have a PC or MAC that you can remote into, it totaly relieves the need for a netbook!
