YNAB You Need A Budget

[FrugalMissM]

Well, Sprint users will soon have the Palm Pre' as a smartphone option. I'm on T-mobile, but I would consider switching for that shiny new toy.

(I'm a Palm gal still using an older Palm Treo 650 GSM phone unlocked for T-mo. I have a LOT of Palm apps that I refuse to re-purchase in an Iphone incarnation. Hopefully the Pre will be backwards compatible for Palm OS 5 programs.)

But generally speaking, I would also love a mobile version of YNAB. I don't suppose YNAB Basic is compatible with Documents to Go?

I heard that the old Palm programs weren't going to be compatible with the new web os as they were starting over, in a way.

(edited to add link - they won't work)

I had one of the first Palms.. but they need the Pre to save the company... I have a Palm Z22 and gave it up to get the Iphone.. The treos were ok but there is no comparison..In two years I could consider the Pre if it takes off..

Documents to go will work with Excel files - it "should" work.. However if you have a small screen then its a pain scrolling around..

It took about 2 years for the iPhone to build up enough apps in its store to validate all of the "There's an app for that, too" commercials that just started to air this year.

Palm would do well to include some sort of backwards compatibility, even if it's in the form of a Palm OS 5 emulator that runs within the new Web OS. Given how cheap memory is these days and what I hope is going to be a much more robust CPU in the Pre, I don't think that is out of the question. Heck, despite all of the PC hating that goes on in the Linux and Mac communities, there are Windows emulators that allow people to run PC programs on both of those platforms.

I'll just hang onto my retro Treo which does everything I need it to do (and with HandBase and Shadowplan on there, I can MAKE my own apps for just about anything) and pay T-mobile just $6/month for web access until I see if the Pre will be worth the switch in carriers, the extra $$ for the full data plan, and the cost of the unit. The iPhone is pretty, but the monthly cell phone bill to take advantage of all of its capabilities makes me

Woo! Looks like someone HAS already developed a Palm OS emulator for the Web OS. http://www.motionapps.com/classic/

Hello there, as a new Android user and Droid owner I'd like to put in my vote for a YNAB Android app. Now that Verizon is supporting Android and there are so many more Android phones on the market, I believe it would be more worth your while. My 2 cents...

Thanks,

Bryan

Ah man...there are so many possibilities...

We will go mobile eventually.

If there are any needs in the development and testing of an Android App for YNAB I would be more than happy to lend a hand.

I have a good deal of experience in the field of software design and GUI design.

I am an Android user as well. Nothing would please me more than to have a functional YNAB app on my HTC incredible.

One more Android version request.

[bsteph10]

bump...

Still interested in a YNAB Android app...

Thanks

[lizmcq]

Yep, I'd take one too. Android rules!!

Switching from iPhone tomorrow to the HTC (Sprint) EVO ... the most awesome smartphone ever, from my idealistic point of view right now! AT&T's network finally got too bad for me to handle, dropping calls at my house twice daily at least. So I'd go for an Android version as well...! I will miss YNAB mobile..

[lproff]

Another vote for Android.

[ntslocum]

A vote for Android.

Love YNAB over Quicken.

[joshdance]

Found a solution to my dropped calls (at&t microcell, it works well so far), so I must reneg my vote, as I have gone back to the iPhone, which I love so much more than the android
