Participantgrats on getting funded. didn’t i suggest to you about finding the right investor…
the palm pilot’s dead. why do you want to go down that route? is there something you’re doing that absolutely cannot be done with web technologies or that are absolutely required (and cannot be done via browser) as part of the initial project? the black berry is still the dominant handheld, samsung/lg have their low cost units, why marry into a platform?
why do you need a bunch of guys doing “server side stuff”? what could they all possibly be doing?
if you’re working on the application development, why not scour the local colleges for a junior programmer intern for cheap? you supervise, ensure organization, coding standards, timelines, testing, etc, and let junior come in with his new fangled book learned technologies?

We decided to skip web 2.0 and go directly to mobile/web 3.0 ๐ Actually, Palm is dead. But the connected world of mobile apps just got started. And what's going to be interesting with android and iphone is that your mobile phone (if things work out) won't be tied down to software your cell carrier forces onto you. It will be the next computing/communication platform that should be truely "open."That's where we're headed. The server side is needed to do all the data indexing/aggregation of what can't be done on the mobile side. The android platform won't be a single phone, if it plans out. The only reason why we're considering iphone is that just in it's recent release, Apple has been able to gain 28% market share in the mobile space, which trumps any other competitor combined. That number is astonishing…Not to mention that Apple just partnered with a bunch of VC's and created iFund. So, we won't be locking exclusively to one platform. The reason why we're picking these two platforms, is that both platforms are being pushed heavily by their creators AND no carrier has really a say. Which is good if you're a small company that's going to put a bunch of apps on the mobile phone.
And no, our idea isn't iPorn or Porn-to-Go, though I'm sure someone who creates something equivalent to PornTube for the mobile will make a fortune. Purely from a financial perspective, that would be extremely lucrative. But being that I'm married with a daughter, I sort of can't bring myself to do this and neither can they other folks on the team.

Participanti dont know. i used palm as the template to describe the google and apple stuff. and the potential future… who’s to say ms and pocket pc dont make a massive drive into the mobile space? to me, browser based technology is the only insurance against obsolescence. plus it’s cheap, easy and 100% supported by everyone. if you dont have to learn and use a new platform/technology, why do it?
i still dont understand the “server side” stuff and the distinction you’re making with the total application development. to me, server side stuff is merely hardware, platform, firewall, network, etc. application development is tied at the hip in terms of client interface and server processes. how screwed up will your app get if there’s a disconnect between client and server specs? avoid that by having your people work in parallel rather than in series; each guy responsible for his module both front and back ends.
anyway, try a cheap intern first. they’ll have the most energy and give you the least flak. just keep them on a short leash.
