Well, it's been quite the week here where I've also been getting over the flu, but I'm VERY excited and happy to share some great news, and that's that the first version of BroadwayWorld.com's iPhone app is now available (for FREE) from Apple's iPhone App Store.

You can get the app by searching for 'Broadway' or 'BroadwayWorld' or by clicking here.
https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=325968221&mt=8

We're proud to be the first Broadway web site with an iPhone app, and this early version features iPhone optimized versions of all of our news, regional content, photos, special offers, blogs, show listings and more, along with links to our wireless message board and other features.

We've got A LOT of new features coming to already-in-the-works updated versions of the app in the very near future including search, video, and lots more and I'd love any and all feedback that YOU'VE got of this early release version and new features that YOU would like to see.

Please email me at [e-mail] with your questions, comments and solutions and thanks as always for your support!

UPDATE 10/21 -- The application now features Search, Streaming BroadwayWorld.com and Jersey Boys Radio and a few other new items. Updated On: 10/21/09 at 02:26 PM

The app looks great, real shiny and new. The message board section still doesn't seem to want to play well all the time with the iPhone (although it seems to go better if you log in before you go to the board itself), but so far, so impressive.

Does this actually have the message board on it? Because I already have Broadwayworld.com as one of my RSS feeds in NetNewsFinder...

Why no Blackberry App?

any way to get it to download on the iTouch?

An iPod Touch is essentially an iPhone minus the phone. So you would download it the same way. Download it on iTunes, connect your iPod Touch and transfer the file to the device.

Or just connect to the Internet (wifi) on the iPod touch and download it via the app store :) jut search for it.

I've got the app & now all I need is the iTouch.

I don't get it I can't really see some 'links to a message' board, maybe I'm blind.

Since BW is having this strange problem on iPhone where it always goes to the top, I've found the best thing is the W.Broadwayworld.com website (i.e. mobile)

It won't download to my iPod touch. It says the app requires a microphone, which my iPod doesn't have. Why does it need a microphone to work?

[FeelingElectric2]

It doesn't need a microphone. Umm do you have OS 3.0 or above?

Great. Now I need to buy the upgrade for my iPod. At least it's only $5.

Yeah, I have the 3.1 update. This was when I tried buying it directly on my iPod. Now I'm gonna try syncing the app onto my iPod.

"kchenofan, Google is your friend. :)"

What do you mean by that?

How about making one for Android?

We're in talks about creating a Blackberry and Android app as well...but, in the meantime, our mobile site should now work better on both of those two platforms than it ever has in the past.

Am about to download it...

But as an aside, the "Broadway in Chicago" app was first.
