Quote by Melissa Evol:
What exactly would the app do?
It would definitely provide access to the forums, news & articles and individual profiles.
There would probably be a system for viewing events. There might be a personal messenger, but it's less likely.
The Xbox Live data we get from Microsoft wouldn't be available due to Microsoft restrictions.

Like we said in the other forum... I think it might be a better idea to create a mobile-friendly version of the site so that all mobile devices can access it, not just iPhones... for example http://en.m.wikipedia.org/
I don't know anything about making an iphone app, or making a mobile version of the website, but there are pros and cons to consider for each one...

I think it would be a great idea, and i'd be willing to pay for it as long as it was 5$ or less.

i nly voted for yes but only if its free because i share my ipod with my brothers and my parents, so they would probably flip a shit on me if i paid for this app. actually they didnt even like that i downloaded the Facebook app, chances are i would have to wait until i had my own itouch or whatever. nut then id totally get it. probably still wouldnt want to pay though

Yea and if you don't need to have a phone to get an apple app. They work on iPods and soon the ipad. I like the idea of just having a mobile friendly address rather than an app. It would please more people with a variety of phones rather than just the apple users. Like it could be www.m.xboxamerica.com to show it's simplified version. Then have abbilities to switch the modes between regular and mobile

If I had an iThingy, I would probably be willing to pay a small fee once to have an XBA app to check stuff, yell at people, provoke Melissa, etc.
I also like the idea of a simplified mobile version, I know quite a few people already check this site from their mobile thingers.
