Support of different mobile OS's is based on demand.  Which puts Android and iPhone first.  But I've been getting much more BlackBerry demand than I originally anticipated.  So I will be working on it soon.  I can't promise it will be ready before the event, as I don't have much spare time right now.  But a BlackBerry version will be coming.  I will also be doing a Windows Phone version, mostly just 'cause I can.

Loving the app. I imagine scoring updates aren't practical since they'll be done from RallyScorring, right?

Real live scoring is impractical, there's no infrastructure to support it.  But it's one of my to-do items for the future.

For now scores are going to be posted frequently in the news section.  So on event day, turn your setting to update that every 5 minutes, and you'll be updated as frequently as possible.

The rally scoring page is pretty well formatted, couldn't you somehow screen scrape then display on the iphone?

RallyScorring (IE Jean-George)  is Tweeting scores I think.


BB would be nice.
