Can we get an iPhone version? This is getting ridiculous.
They need a mobile version…not necessarily just iphone.
I use iBloomberg and that is great, iAF would rule.
Save AF page as one of the icons. Launch it. Tada!
iBloomberg is awesome-o
you know whats ridiculous? AT&T plans. 40 bucks calling plan… fine… 30 bucks data plan… fine… 5 bucks 200 text plan = rip off 15 bucks 1500 text plan = ripoff like madoff 20 bucks unlimited text plan = ripoff like madoff

I guess that’s what you get for going with a terrible carrier.
i just need 400 text, not 200, not 1500. It seems like competition doesn’t exist in cellular sector… they’re all giant ripoffs.
I will write one once i will get some free time… in 10-15 years perhaps
if you get the unlimited data plan doesnt that cover your txt msging? thats how mine is, although that plan is 1.5yrs old now…which is why I may never enter a new contract. I agree $20 is BS, I walked out of a ATT store last weekend after hearing that (not that I have anywhere to go)
I have had pretty good luck with T-Mobile. Service is pretty good, and I think i get 400 texts for $5 a month? Phone selection isnt always the best but i like the new google phone.

I agree $20 is BS, I > walked out of a ATT store last weekend after > hearing that (not that I have anywhere to go) no the unlimited data plan only covers you for the internet usage. the text charges are a ponzi scheme. but as pointed out the phone market is inefficient. by the way, i get better coverage from AT&T where i live as compared to my previous Verizon service.
Sprint has $100 everything plan. I’m considering that if I go for a smart phone one of these days. I have AT&T as well, and I have not been satisfied with the services available. Right now I’m hanging onto my 450 min $40 plan with a 1500 texts and 5mb data addition for $15. The 1500/5mb data addition is no longer available however. It serves me enough to check the weather, finance news, facebook, email, etc.

iPhone has an app which sends texts via email, which can be replied to via standard texting phones. You need to know the carrier of the recipient, though. Having to pay ANYTHING for texting is a ripoff, as texts ride on existing bandwidth used for tower-tower communication, so the marginal cost is infinitesimally small.
NakedPut, which application does this?
There are several. Look under the utilities category.
$30 for internet seems like a lot to me. Must be better deals out there. I pay €10 a month ($13.50 or so at today’s spot) in euroland. That’s about as much as I’d pay. I would have thought there must be somebody in the US offering monthly 3G in the $10-$15 range. Back to the topic - a mobile friendly version of AF would be nice.
