did anyone ever get the app builder??

[jxker]

I signed up for it on multiple accounts and never heard another word.....I was wondering if anyone had it and what their thoughts on it were

I'd like an answer to this also.

if you're talking about the google app builder for the droid then the same thing happened to me. I signed up and never even got an email from them.

I received an email yesterday regarding my access to App Inventor. It began with "Welcome to App Inventor".

I signed up with only one account...

If you signed up, you may get your email regarding access soon..

I got mine y'day as well. Unfortunately, USB Debugging doesn't work for me so I can't use it.

Great question. I've gotten a little suspicious. First there's a comment on the site that suggests they're a bit overwhelmed with the invitation requests. Second, David Pogue posted a pretty critical review the other day:

D.I.Y. Tool for Apps Needs Work - Readers' Comments - NYTimes.com

Based on Pogue's comments, I have the feeling it's not quite ready for prime time, i.e., lots of frustrating limitations (e.g., one screen per app). Guess I can always try the SDK!

I personally don't like it. Can't get it to work on my phone anyways..believe your phone needs to be connected in order to build, which in my case, will not work. Was also slow and again, limited. The slowness may have been due to my first using of it.
