Shortcut to Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ iPlayer on mobile website available for Blackberry

A couple of weeks ago we made a shortcut to the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ iPlayer on mobile website available in App World, Blackberry's App Store for smartphones.

The shortcut is a little downloadable app that places a Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ iPlayer icon on your Blackberry phone. This icon launches the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ iPlayer mobile website in your phone's web browser.

The app is designed to give you convenient access to Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ iPlayer so you can enjoy Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ programmes on your Blackberry.

To download the app to your Blackberry phone you can either search for iPlayer in the Blackberry App store or visit this link on your Blackberry to install the app from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ mobile site.

Note that Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ iPlayer on Mobile is currently available on the Blackberry Bold 2 (9700), Storm 2 (9520/9550) and the Torch (9800).

We are working on other apps and shortcuts which will be launching over the coming months.

The team would really welcome your comments and feedback on apps. When we Tweet about apps we are going to use a #bbcapps hashtag so if you would like to use this too that would be great. We are always keen to know what you think.

    How about creating an iPlayer application for Android yourselves, instead of just throwing lawyers at 3rd party application developers?

    RIP beebPlayer
    RIP myPlayer

    "David Maddens blog claimed the cross-platform capabilities of Adobe's Flash make platform-specific versions redundant". He forgot to add the footnote;

    excluding Apple, RIM and the majority of Android handsets.

    Why is the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ stopping Android users from viewing iPlayer and video clips but enabling for other closed operating systems ?

    Shame on you bbc, WHY WHY WHY threaten myplayer and subsequently have bbc iplayer content removed from what was a very worthwhile functional app, I was disgsuted firstly that you favour the apple playtform already anyway and have an app for the iphone, but nothing for andriod users, which now outnumber apple in the Uk and States, so the myplayer app was a good workaround, as a licence payer I am well and truly *issed off that you have now totally denied us access to your content firstly via beebplayer and now myplayer, maybe collectively andriod users coould contribute a very small sum of money each to take you to court for discrimination, because quite simply that is what it is
