Editors Note: The day RedState Mobile launched, we experienced some tech difficulties. I wanted to remind everyone that this is out there in the wild now. So, if you've got your Treo, Blackberry, Q, or other handheld device, check out RedStateMobile.com. Thanks, Erick.
We heard you. I want my Redstate on-the-go. Sure, many of you with the latest devices can pull up redstate.com and get a pretty good user experience, but what of those bored, tired souls who just want a good headline fix?
It's currently in beta, and subject to some changes, but it's a fast-loading, headline driven fix for your commute, meeting, or lunch break. It's got the Redstate Network sites, as well as top stories from around the globe and right here in the US. Each headline displays a summary, and you can click on over to the original article.
Redstate. News. Politics. Sports. Even a built-in Google Search box. I've made it my mobile homepage. You can too.

I just loaded it up on my BB 7100, and it is indeed a thing of beauty. Absolutely outstanding, Clayton!
being that you were going to email me 'your precious' about 3 days ago. :P
Let me ask you this, though: What is the possibility of implementing something like cellular blogging? For example, Livejournal has an option that they have specific number set up that users can call. The user has the telephone number set up to the account as well as a pin and then the user can make a post via phone. The con is that it is hard to do more on a source than say 'I saw this on cnn.com' or 'I just heard this on the Rush!', but the pro is that we can get news quickly.

...Do we really need all this other stuff from Yahoo and ESPN? I mean I like sports as much as the next guy, but...
Anyway, just my 2 cents, this will be a much used feature by me. Thanks!

Agreed. It's cluttered.
The RedState material, from all RedState sites, really should be at the top of the page, and anything else pushed down to the bottom or eliminated. (And some of us, pardon the blasphemy, don't like sports as much as the next guy.)
Why the Nokia E61? Because that's my baby.
But I personally regress the site on the E61, Blackberry 8700g, Treo 650, RAZR, and SLVR. A buddy does the Motorola Q for me.
