Someone please port this app or something similar and create a .deb.
Can you amagine an app like this on Nxx!
I tried a flash version of stock/news ticker but I could not get it to work.

There's no way possible, period, to grab information from the bloomberg website, or any website, and provide what the terminal provides. BBerg's information is highly proprietary and they won't let you have access to without their software.

Possible to do something similar but only with free t+15 data. See here for some background: http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5885 (Squeak Smalltalk but easily done in other languages)

It might be more reasonable to hope for a port of Medved QuoteTracker, in that it is free -- you pay a low $7/mo fee to get the ads removed -- and, more important, it accepts hundreds of different data feeds.
OTOH, when I used to trade actively, I had an array of 3 monitors, each 19" or larger, to use it effectively. It's a bit hard to imagine it on a Tablet!

I tried googling for an opensource alternative for Bloomberg terminal.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloomberg_Terminal
I could only find very little useful information. In theory one should be able to extract information from the website and be able to display to provide it in a more formatted way useful for traders (which I am not).
