Anyone have any info on if The Shooter app will be available for the iPhone 4G when it comes out on Verizon wireless next month? I know its not available for the iPhone with AT&T.

Re: Shooter+iPhone 4G+Verizon??
Shooter is an Android application, so it would be pretty doubtful. The carrier has nothing to do with it; Apple vs. Google does, along with the creators of the apps themselves.
If you're wanting to run an Apple product, just get Ballistic FTE.

+1 for Ballistic... Different than Shooter but great program nonetheless.

Re: Shooter+iPhone 4G+Verizon??
I have Bullet Flight (Knight Armament Corporation) and Ballistic FTE and Isnipe.
I use Bullet flight the most. Really easy to store and change parameters. I use Ballistic Flight to store range data with target hits and velocities on a range zeroing session.
The only advantage of Isnipe ofer the others is it has a mil hold calculator for moving targets. Not really useful fut fun to play with. I wouldn't buy it again.

Bullet Flight is the easiest app to deal with, Ballistic FTE seems the most accurate. <span style="font-style: italic">Based on my limited experience.</span>

Shooter is pretty freaking cool and seems to be dead on for me. It grabs readings from the nearest weather station and can hook up with a Kestrel through Bluetooth. It can make corrections for MV due to temperature variance and for super long distance, it corrects for Coriolis and Spindrift. It also features Bryan Litz's ballistic library.
It has a built-in ranging app right where you need it. And it is $10!
I switched from a Blackberry solely to get shooter. My dad has an iPhone. It is pretty cool... operation is very smooth. The way that it stores and recalls contacts is not very good and we have been searching for a Dialer that is as good as a Blackberry for an iPhone.
I bought a Motorola Defy. It is waterproof. I had an issue with the speaker, which they repaired, but I had to uninstall and reinstall everything. It is not as smooth in operation as an iPhone (it can be a little laggy at times), but it has a lot of really great useful capabilities, especially if it is rooted. Wireless tether is awesome. Titanium backup is also awesome. When they update to Froyo operating system, I will be able to run Java, which I can't believe the iPhone can't do yet.
All in all, I use AT&T, so I could have gone with an Apple, but I went with the Motorola Defy (which is for T-Mobile), unlocked it, and use it on AT&T's network. The main reason I did this was that I wanted a ballistic calculator and Shooter looked to be the best out there, so I figured it would be nice if I could talk to people and cruise the Internet on my ballistic calculator. It would also be nice if it were weather resistant, so I ended up with the Defy. If I ever decide to "upgrade" my phone, I can pull the sim card out and use the phone as a dedicated ballistic calculator. That was my thinking. But you may want something different. I have to say, when I use my dad's iPhone, my impression is that it is very slick and presents very well... but functionally, it is no better than my phone. Maybe it is a little worse, but I am sure I could customize my dad's iPhone to make it as good as my Defy, except for the waterproof and dustproof part.

An Otterbox Defender case for the Iphone takes care of that. You can't swim with it, but using it in the rain is fine.

Sounds very cool. One more reason to want an iPhone.
In the mean time, does anyone know if this app is available for Blackberry?

It looks like it's an Android only app at this time (will not work on the Blackberry). You can send an e-mail to the developer and ask about future plans.

Re: Shooter+iPhone 4G+Verizon??
Another item of note....
The Verizon iPhone coming out in February is an "iPhone 4", but not 4G.
It will not have 4G capability.
If you want to run Shooter on a Verizon phone, I would suggest waiting a few months for the new Motorola Droid "Bionic".
It will sport a 1Ghz dual-core processor, 4G capability(when it comes to your area), front and rear cameras, and a larger and higher resolution screen than the original Droid. More resoution than the Droid X. It will not have a hardware keyboard.
I only wish that Verizon would introduce a ruggedized Droid.
