GiantBomb for Windows Mobile

I just got myself a AT&T Tilt 2, and I was thinking it would be cool if they had a GiantBomb app on the new Windows Marketplace. I know demand for it might not be high, but I had a G1 unlocked and messed around with the Android version of it. It ran alright, but I didn't good use out of it because a G1 on At&T only gets EDGE. Not sure how well the iPhone app works, but judging by the development community and all that I have heard, sounds like it runs pretty good.
 
This is just an idea, maybe more a request, but if there are other Windows Phone users out there and you would like a GiantBomb App...maybe put a reply here in this thread?

I don't really know anything about developing for those phones; but after coding the GiantBomb android app, I'd certainly be willing to help out anyone who decides to write a windows mobile app, as far as accessing GB resources and stuff goes.

Alright, so this topic is getting views, as far as I can tell, and...maybe small amount of interest. Though I suppose the development (if it does happen), should probably wait for the Windows Phone 7 series. It looks like it is much more robust in terms of what a Windows Mobile Phone can do. Check out the Mobile World Congress 2010 show.

i know i would certainly like a windows mobile app or maybe a more standard webkit version of the site for mobile browsers... either way. The biggest problem right now is that the .net comact framework is a complete piece of garbage.

How is Windows Mobile? I always wanted their OS to work properly on phones, because having their office suite available on the go would be amazing... more so than any of the other "fun" apps that the iphone may have. Productivity software in portable form would be amazing, as would a fully functional Outlook that synched properly with my email, task list, and calendar from my main computer. I'm always super excited about Windows Mobile, but have been dissapointed every time so far. Have they addressed the issues enough to be competitive yet?

Well its seems with the latest version, Windows Mobile 6.5, which is currently available as on the very latest Windows Mobile phones from HTC and some LG phones, (I am using a HTC Tilt2 with AT&T service), that they have at least addressed the fact that the OS wasn't all that pretty. So all the menus and such are much more stylized and finger friendly as well. As for the syncing with Outlook, it looks to be done quite well with a threaded email view. And Office Mobile 2010 is really awesome.  I don't know if you would conisder it  enough of an improvement though. OH, and the text messaging now are fully threaded as well. The thing is, its still Windows Mobile 6.XXX, based on code that has been marginally edited and changed over the years. While this latest version is better and quite possiblly the best, I think you should wait for Windows Phone 7 series. "

WINDOWS MOBILE AHHHHHHHHHHAAAHHAHAHAHHA 
 
 
 
 
That is all.

Not sure that it will help you, but I'm starting to work with the Windows 7 Mobile SDK .  I'm are doing some R&D with it, so I figured duplicating the GB app could be a decent jumping off point since I'm fairly familiar with the GB API.  That being said, are there screens of the Android/iPhone apps floating around that I could take a look at?

Bypassed the Giantbomb app in favor of putting together a game.  Was much more interested in learning more XNA than doing more WPF/Silverlight.  I'll let you all know when I can release any info on the game..

Sure thing. Sounds like a cool idea none the less.
