oh ive been waiting since i got the phone.
One thing i hope doesnt happen. I had pandora on a winmo device and sound quality was horrible i hope thats not the case for us now.
I hope it comes soon. Just googled pandora,tried it,and now I love it. Does have a .jar of of a mobile version already out? I'd like to see if I can get that to work while i wait.
I think it does. youll have to do a seach on it though.

I tried using the J2me converter in the market but this are my results on this thread. I have the JAR hosted if someone wants to give it a shot.

Hopefully it will stream ok on EDGE. Im excited about this one!!!!
Open the box now!1!
Oh yummy. I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve, can't wait to open pandora's box. One app I've been dying to get my hands on since I got a G1. Hack away at that jarfile.

Tell me why I should use this over Last.Fm
I have been using last.fm for a few years now, its the single best thing about XBMC. What does pandora do that last.fm does not?
Last.Fm bitrate is very clear and stable, android players take a bit to buffer but this is related to hardware not software. It has just about EVERYTHING I have ever searched for and I have searched for some little known punkrock bands.
The thing I hate about pandora on my friends iphone is the damn skip limit. When I showed him last.fm he was amazed I could skip tracks forever.

So what your saying is.... There is no reason to be excited at all. Unless you have never used last.fm that is.
If there's a skip limit I'll stick with last.fm, that's a deal killer so no thanks to this and eyemeem
don't overlook the most important aspect of Pandora...
The Music Genome Project, an ambitious attempt at mapping the things that have influenced the artists we all listen to. I've been exposed to great music I likely would not have heard had it not been for The MGP.
atleast last.fm works in the uk, just tried pandora website now and it says no longer available outside the US
Ive got nothing to do with the site or software but been using the application for a few days and thought it needed the credit. The market has a couple of alternatives but AndroidIRC isnt in the market but found it fast and good.
AndroidIRC is a free, multiserver, IRC app for the Android platform. It originally started off as a project for uni but is now something I continue to work on in my free time.
This app is very much still a work in progress, however, much of the core functionality has been implemented. The following things are incomplete:
Show Icon Option: Not yet implemented and has no effect on the app. Implemention postponed
Flinging to change windows: Implemented but not enabled. Needs tweaking.

http://androidirc.net/
search for "Android IRC", not AndroidIRC to find it.
My first thought: is it really worth US $5?
I have been using DaraIRC which works pretty great, has a good android style feel to it and is free. In fact so far the only thing I do not like about it is the icon.
you might be looking up the wrong thing!
Fromt the sie he posts that it not in the market because he doesnt have a credit card for the market userid!
The android irc on the market that cost money is well worth it. The developer listens to feature requests and frequently updates. I use it often.
hey have any of you guys seen this? http://www.cyrket.com/asset/943468869273605197 its orb for android, only problem is there is no search function for it!
do any of you mods or gods (cyanogen, etc) or normal folk (lol) know how to or could you add a search function or sort in artists, albums??
its open source now, so you could even make a quick buck!

I love this on the iphone, so it would be really great for android!
80 views and nothing?
I've been using that alpha for awhile now. Very buggy, video playback is sorely lacking codec support, music playback is marginal at best. Lack of search function and cumbersome file browsing make this app fail imo. Needs help badly but could be a cool package with some work.
Wow, almost made a new post because this one is dead.
I mean c'mon it's Orb for Android! I'm pretty geeked at how some of the videos I sampled from PC actually streams on here! C'mon surely there is someone that's interested in picking up the open source code and adding in better browsing options like browsing by folder & search! This have potential to be one of the most kickass apps on here!
i had orb streaming live tv and my media from my pc but it broke after cupcake for some reason i would love an app for this
Bump... This app needs some work!
Not working on Droid
I gave up Windows Mobile (which worked pretty well with Orb) and got a Droid yesterday. It is a fantastic device, but I have been pretty disappointed with the lack of Orb support. I would be willing to pay to see a stable Orb app, and a Hulu app too! (it would be nice if Orb started to stream Hulu to mobile devices, I know they already do some internet vids).
What's wrong with just using the mobile browser site? I've been using it almost since I got my G1 and it generally works fine.
I saw that this is now open-sourced but not a single dev has picked this up to finish. I see that it has great potential and a lot of the base has been completed, just needs some fine tuning.

Thread resurrection!!!!
Ok. So there are plenty of apps in the market, of course, but very few are exclusive and optimized for honeycomb because its so new. The Xoom should have came with more of its "own" apps pre-installed imo. Anyways, we've got CNN, the Human Body, Pulse, Youtube, some games, and probably others. And every app in the market will run on Honeycomb mostly, but I would like to hear some suggestions, comments, and concerns about what apps are great, and what we expect to see months from now. Sorry, if this topic has been posted before. I just want to hear some honest feedback about the Xoom/Honeycomb apps. Please share the what's recommended and what's just essential to our beloved Xoom.

Maybe also include "list of apps that don't work well with Honeycomb."
But for the most part, they all work, some just look a little weird (like facebook) or something doesn't show up right (like the lasers in HexDefense).
Good:
Gun Bros works great on the Xoom. Fruit Ninja THD works flawlessly. Google Earth
Bad:
Unblock me; CNN sometimes doesn't display stuff, I have no idea why. And Google Body likes to crash too, but sometimes will work completely fine.
I haven't gotten too many "duplicate" apps - in other words, if I have them on my phone but rarely use them, I'll just keep it on the phone. But if it's something I'm going to be using just as much on the Xoom as my EVO, then I downloaded it. I just haven't gotten around to getting a ton of apps yet.
Thanks for your feedback. I agree with you about how some apps that are rarely used on my phone have no point of being on the xoom. I really haven't delve into my xoom that much either because im anal and waiting for my screen protectors. Lol. But I installed the common ones like root explorer which is a necessity in my opinion, and wordsmith! I love that friggin game! When I start using my Xoom religiously ill post my experiences. However, I know that over time honeycomb is going rock hard, and the xoom will be a longstanding beast in the war of the tablets!

I agree, the main draw to the Xoom was the fact that it was a "Google Experience" device (or whatever they call it). So unlike Samsung, we'll actually get updates quickly and, I would guess, probably before any other 3.0 device (unless it's a Google Experience device as well without MotoBlur/Sense/Touchwiz).
What I meant about the apps I have on my phone - somethings like handcent for example won't be necessary on the Xoom (at least for me). Neither is SetCPU necessary for me right now (since I'm not currently rooted, and to be honest, don't really feel the need to so far...). Hmmm other apps I'll use only on the phone and not the Xoom? Probably stuff like remote control apps, financial stuff like checkbooks and mint.com (just go online or use the phone).
Wapedia works EXCELLENT (awhile ago I bought the ad removal plugin, totally worth it). Almost looks like regular desktop Wikipedia.
Yeah. I love Wapedia! That's an excellent app that would be awesome for the Xoom. I'll install it! So, it's a tablet, NOT a phone. It may suit some people to aquire a data plan for work, or if you're on-the-go constantly, but I won't need it. I simply use my WiFi, and that's sufficient enough. Handsent would be lame, because I have my phone of course, but I'm not going to sit there and send text messages on my kind of "replacement" laptop. LOL! I can Google voice being a good asset because instant messaging seems reasonalbe. I'm pretty sure that it's not working right now and they're planning an update soon to fix it. IDK, I love having the Xoom as my little 'sidekick' for school, and business-related tasks. It's such a multimedia powerhouse! How technology changes so rapidly amazes me...

Definitely, I'm more stunned by the technology encased inside of it really, and the fact that they've gotten it work this well, regardless of number of crashes or bugs. Still better than a Windows computer!
If I'm not mistaken, Wapedia even had a slightly different layout - like you could change the type of wiki you're searching quickly on the right hand side. I haven't delved into it too much, but I remember it looked better than on the phone.
And of course you can always root and tether your phone if you haven't already so you can get on the move with the tablet. But I just really wanted its own connection since I'm pulling almost double the speed from Verizon as I would off of tethering from Sprint. And it's nice to have two different connections (although they probably connect to the same towers) if your data isn't pulling up well when you're on the road like I am.
Noblesse Oblige
This application began as a themed method to access the same Siri servers used by Jailbroken iOS devices, but has since grown to surpass even those.
It now has offline recognition, allowing access to everything that is still available without an Internet connection. It has social broadcasting, which allows users to send messages to the others using the application. It also now supports launching applications and improved navigation.
Future features will include leaderboards to resemble the reports given in the show and integration with Facebook and Twitter, to accompany current integration with YouTube.

Wow.
It wouldn't connect to your server, so I switched it to one of the free English/German servers you have listd and it's working great.
The voice recognition on it is freaking amazing, even if I'm basically whispering.
Great job integrating all these different things together.

Pretty much any server listed will provide the basics, just not the extensions. The only issue I have seen is many of those servers are run from Germany, so grammar isn't always perfect and the commands are unnatural.
I will openly admit that I purchased, tore apart, and then based my application on siri0us, which is partnered with grwh. I have been trying to keep the unthemed portions similar, much like a Siri theme would be to allow people the option of using either application without it being a drastic change or confusing process.
Surprisingly, though, some of the grwh moderators have been the most opposition on this project. Even with the server being open source and the mass amount of updates and improvements I have offered back to them, they have this view that I am trying to profit from their server. The application price is unrelated to the server, but the proceeds are used to maintain it. This comes from sacrificing any profit to provide this service back to the user instead. This issue has been addressed and hopefully does not threaten the development of this project.

Iris is like the original Siri. It only works right on certain devices, the responses are generic, and you get stuck with what they give you, including ads.
On another note, that application forces religion on the user by responding with numerous references to God and Christianity. This is something I feel deserves some sort of disclaimer and isn't really appropriate for applications that span multiple countries and religions.
This works with pretty much anything, the responses vary and are alway being expanded and updated, you can choose the voice engine, the server can be switched, custom responses can be submitted to the server, no religious belief is chosen for the user, and (thanks to the wolfram plugin) you can still ask things like how much caffeine in a mountain dew.

I am working on the app launching as a separate plugin. The reason for this is that the server has no way of handling things like that, so having a launch command pass through the server would be silly. The local plugin will intercept the command instead.
The alternative was to have the server pass back a value that was read to launch the app, but I would be running the only server that handled it. This will provide the best method for adding the functionality to any server someone chooses to use.

Nice, can't wait to try this!
Very nice, downloaded and works perfectly .. thanks for the tip!
The Facebook and Twitter plugins currently return errors when trying to use either of them. This is a known issue that is being addressed and they are still a work in progress.

First of all, great start, but is is possible to customize the theming? Or for that should I go with a different, non-anime themed app?
Also, where is the best place to submit suggestions for responses?

Sirious! is an unthemed Siri client, but with theirs you lose the search button launch, some GPS functionality, orientation handling, and the default server is configured to their public one (which gets rid of the server theme components, but also most of the plugins and improvements to the server).
In the app menu, there is a button for custom commands that will take you directly to the page to submit custom responses, or under "Interactions" on the main site listed in the first post. If you mean altering the server responses for other things, you can suggest them through the "Contact Developer" link on Google Play's app page or the site "Resources".
Removing the theme would make this just another bland Siri clone, and that was the whole point of developing a new one. If the theme is really that much of a problem or makes you feel uncool, you may want to wait until sirious! updates their app for Siri servers or try Skyvi, Assistant, Ever Friends, Iris, or any other "generic" voice assistant app.

Well, it's not so much that it's uncool, it's just not Jarvis
Anyway, the main issue I had was with setting alarms and sending texts, neither of which I could manage to do.

I would have done Alfred and the Bat communicator if I really wanted to meet the Warner Bros. legal team. Anime companies tend to be less strict when it comes to "fan creations" but it's often an issue with those themes being considered "lame" by the general public. I tried not to go too crazy but not make it just a background that didn't fit anything else.
I did catch some errors on alarms that are being looked into and texts seem to be hit or miss. Both are plugins issues with the server so they will get fixed without having to update.

Yeah, the old famous marvel lawsuits. shame on them.
Anyway, one thing that you should probably look at is the landscape mode. Right now it just stretches the background image, which looks terrible. I had some more response oddities, but I assume you can get those from server logs.

I can only see it if the command broke somehow. It is configured so my only logs are the IP origin of a failed connection or SSL error and issues with code execution. What is sent and received aren't logged.
