Of course everyone would vote yes. Cool

A better question is would you prefer iPhone or Droid since they are different, you don't make one for both phones, so I changed the poll.

Yes! I would be much more efficient at wasting time!

But seriously, the samba has helped me many times while on the road via iPhone. A specific ap or mobile optimized version would be great.

i voted iPhone but don't nessicarily think an ap is needed.
i like the fact that the site looks/functions the same on my laptop and my mobile.

the only issue i have is that you cannot upload photos.
i don't know if this is a hardware or site issue.
but if an ap would make it possible to upload i am all for it.

The Samba works on my Droid exactly the same way it does on my computer, so no app is really needed. Smile

Thanks for the input.

Yes, the uploading images thing is the way phones work so at least right now, my understanding is that an App is required for that one feature.

I'd rather not see a bunch of crappy cell phone pics filling up the gallery. I would definitely use a droid app though for everything else...

An iPod app that is also optimized for iPads would be awesome. All I have is an iPad, no regular computer. I have to borrow my wife's computer to add pics. My understanding is one app would work on both devices with minimal extra work.
