Blackberry: Can Gowalla deliver?
How long until we can do this on a Blackberry? You said 2 months about 4 months ago.

We are doing private-beta testing of a web-based solution. Look to hear more about this very soon! -

frustrated
mobile web != application -

I’m
pissed.
AND, the mobile web page doesn't even WORK on my Curve. I have GPS and everything (can use Google Maps without a problem). Apparently Gowalla staff don't have BB's, so could care less about those of us that do. -

Gowalla doesn't care about us BB users.
They want us to use a mobile website to play.
As if staying logged on m.gowalla.com was a fun thing to do.
The website doesn't work for me or any of my BB users friends. Nothing is blocked on my phone or by my provider.
So the problem is not my phone but Gowalla.
They keep saying that they're going to release an app soon. But it's been 6 months now.
Oh well, it's their loses.
I mean, if they really cared about us, they would work on an app and listen to the players. -

I’m
disappointed to say the least!!!
Customer service from Gowalla is very poor too no one answers - I wonder why??? I have been able to use the web based app for my BlackBerry but guess what? I am in Europe and the check-ins give me spots in the US I have now written and e-mail to Gowalla after attempts of voicing myself here and sending them messages on Twitter which they don't answer either (hnce I have stopped following them). I prefer Gowalla but Foursquare definitely has the edge they at least answer there customers plus they have an app for most platforms. Note to Gowalla get your act together please!!! -

I’m
Annoyed
I tried using the web based system on the Blackberry and it gave my gps position as being about 100 miles away from where I was. The Foursqaure app had no trouble locating me but I am finding that I am using FS more and more due to the lack of support from Gowalla. I've also found they ignore Twitter messages.-
If you are still having issues with this, it would be great if you would join my report to reinforce that I'm not the only one: http://feedback.gowalla.com/gowalla/t...
Thx! -

The GPS support through the mobile website is very poor. I ran through the troubleshooting which confirmed that my GPS on my BB Storm is functional, but it can't do the same when I try to check in.
I can only use Gowalla using m.gowalla.com on my laptop now.

I’m
anxious for it to work
I'm using Gowalla on the iPhone with no problems.
I just spent over an hour trying to get Gowalla working on my cousin's Blackberry and here's what I found:
The web n walk browser will load the mobile Gowalla site, but won't leave the logon page, even when the footer says that the account is logged in. (Hitting Sign Out generates a HTML 500 error.)
It does, by the way, show the proper location down at the bottom in the footer.
On Opera Mobile 5, we can get logged in but it can't find the location, and I can't find the settings for the Javascript prompt to work correctly.
All in all the problems seem to be related to getting the HTML to work, which gives me the distinct impression that we're talking about javascript and css problems...
So, um, what can we do here? What's the magic phrase to join the beta?
Thanks!

I think I have the exact same problem with my blackberry curve 8900. It won't leave the logon screen even though it says I am logged in. I cannot click on anything. I really hope for the app to come out soon! I don't like Foursquare and feel left out!!!! :(

I installed the Gowalla BB app yesterday. I'm also disappointed. It takes minutes (actually more than 60 seconds) to load and gives me an error message whenever I try to check in someplace.

I’m
bummed
I've noticed the same delay, but only recently. It will sit on the loading screen for a long time (~15 secs) before it does anything. Many times it freezes up my whole phone and I have to pull the battery to get it back up and running. I love Gowalla, but 75% of the time I'm not able to check in to the places I'm located. -
