    Or anybody that works on your own private projects on mobile apps, particulary in Symbian or Android?

    Yeh get the blog up, I'd love to follow it

    I use anddev.org a bit, its a bit limiting so it is but there is some good info hidden in there, otherwise I just use the Android developers documentation and google to figure out what I need.

    It can be very frustrating working with Android, one thing I tried to do recently looked impossible, with no one knowing how to do it and no info on it and when I finally found out how to do it, it turned out to be just 4 simple lines of code.

    But ultimately I find it very rewarding and enjoy working on it.

    The best book I've come across so far is Wireless Application Development by Shane Condor but I have a Wrox book on it as well that has some nice info in it though

    I need someone to write a program for iPhone or Symbian or Android phones which will send/receive data through bluetooth? Not much data processing involved. Its probably a piece of p**s to some of ye guys?

    I've re-written a couple of web based UIs for mobiles a few years ago, and just starting a project to write an iPhone skin for our product's mobile interface. I've not done any native application development though.
