Sign in to disble this ad
Was thinking the other day, it would be cool to have a TalkBass app on my iphone.
Couple of features that would be neat are...
1. Checking PM's
2. Classifieds
3. Feedback for transactions
Just throwing this out there as an idea, anyone else besides me think this would be cool and useful?  |

Excuse the watermark, haven't decided if I want to pay for the app yet. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Feb 2007 Location: Atlanta, Ga | | | yeah, i can view talkbass on my iphone with safari, with alot of scrolling and enlarging the text. I wouldnt expect the app to let us view the actual site for surfing, but just to check PM's, and see classified ( ie the craigslist app ) |

Another option might be to have a mobile version of Talkbass that would be less graphics and scrolling intensive. I'm sure that would be quite a project, though.
