Having used both the Android and Blackberry SDKs in my spare time (which is what anyone developing FRC apps will be), I can say that RIM's website, documentation, emulator, and SDK are all awful things to work with compared to Android's. If someone gave me a good (and simple) idea for an FRC app that hasn't already been done, I'd give it a good try on Android, but wouldn't even think about doing Blackberry.

At Chesapeake the pit released a special schedule that listed each individual team and what match they had and when it was happening. It was a nice feature that I hope to see at other events.

Anything is faster than using a smartphone app if all you have is a dumbphone.

Use whatever you want....

The AZ regional qualification match schedule was not available on the internet Thursday night, like it usually is. I have never seen the practice schedule on the internet ahead of time. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

This is one of the many reports that can be generated by FMS. If peopole request them the Scorer can generate them.

Teams should request it.
It's very cool.

Type-ins have popped up in Seattle, Phoenix and Basel, Switzerland, where they called the event a "schreibmaschinenfest.

... old typewriters are built like battleships. They survive countless indignities and welcome repairs, unlike laptops and smartphones, which become obsolete almost the moment they hit the market."

I believe it was Team 79 who distributed those match schedules for teams. It was definitely very helpful and for once I didn't have to walk around with a 8 1/2 by 11 papers in my pocket.
