PS If you agree, please find the time to cast a vote (1-5 stars) by using the Market application of your smartphone. This will help blueBill Mobile in spreading more. Thanks.
Rather than just for recording...is there an AP like Ipod has for sounds and such or one in the works? jim
Yup, ironically just available a couple days now, iBird is now good for the Android. I see it in the marketplace and plan on trying it out. Reviews on FB seem promising. No Pro version for Android yet.
I'm very interested if this becomes something like the Collins eGuide, it's because of that I haven't switched over to Android yet.
Good question and I'm preparing a post with some insight of the point, which has some subtle aspects.
I can anticipate now that blueBill will have sounds and images initially for the Western Palearctic ecozone - while it can provides information for the whole world, there's some time needed to prepare and verify the media, and of course I'll start from the area where I live.
I just downloaded the latest version off the Market and it works great on my Dell Streak. Looking forward to the update.
Just a small problem, I tried adding a Eurasian Collared Dove and then tried to download a call, but it said I had less than 20mb left on my card when I have 14gb+ and 1.4Gb left on internal storage...
Dell Streak
Android 1.6
Any other details can be provided..
Thanks for your hard work..
One question: when you tried, was the phone connected to the computer (e.g. with the USB)? I noted that in such circumstances the phone shares the sdcard with the computer, and marks it as unusable (thus having 0 free memory) until the connection is closed.
If somebody else could try with a different model and let me know, he would provide me with useful information.
It is when I'm unconnected aswell, I dont think the streak allows phone connection to the card when connected to the computer.
Thanks again...
On a side note, I was a VB6 developer for 16 years and I'm looking at maybe doing some Android apps ( if I can get Eclipse installed on Win 7 64bit ) so may have a look at your source to try debug it myself... will let you now what I find if I get Eclipse installed properly.
Theoretically all Android devices should be compatible (there are o.s. version issues, but I'm targetting 1.5, and earlier than it there is less than 1% of devices). Of course, a *Pad could be very different than a phone because of the larger screen, and blueBill Mobile could be less user friendly... or more, who knows?
I plan to buy an Android *Pad within the summer, as soon as some new models come out and I realize what they offer. Until them, if somebody tries blueBill Mobile with a *Pad, please let me know. Eventually the user interface can be adapted.
