I think I finally am going to be able to make the time tonight to update the package for the mobile changes and test it. I was going to just package it when I got to work this morning, but forgot my memory card at home, so I'll package it when I get home and upload it. The upload will be untested by me however, until games are on tonight.
The advantage that I see in mlbviewer vs. the mobile site is ease. I wrote the gui, so I'm a little biased, but it puts the information I need/want in an easy to navigate location. The one downside being that the first load time is a little longer than I like. Theoretically, if the other features get fixed for the desktop version, we should still be able to watch the highlights, and condensed games, and such. I'm going to be very curious to see if there is a video performance difference with the new media streams (don't know if they are still wmv).
Oh yeah, the update today will probably include a means of displaying team icons next to the game. I have it implemented on my copy, but I still haven't decided how to get around the possible issues with distributing mlb images. I'll probably have to finally include an "about" dialog that references them.
