   this is not as good as what you get on the treo

   id like a way to save my most frequent trip

   for me its

   PH to 24th current day current time with bikes

   I have like 4 routes like that that I check all the time.

   At least it would be good to be able to define them as bookmarks, but for that you’d need a way to say current time – as opposed to having the page generate the time.

   Also the layout could be improved.

   I think with the number of tech weenies in the SF Bay Area, it would be worth it to have an iPhone specific wireless UI. – Especially given that Apple is the home team!

   I agree! we really need an iPhone Bart app, badly. Any takers?

   I wonder if BART provides an API for developers? I know google maps has bart information as well so that might be a way to go as well.

   yeah google is an option, but I’d really like to get something just for bart that is optimized…

   I sent bart a comment.

   My main thing is that I would like the have a few bart bookmarks that will show me current results from my stations. I dont want to have to enter the stations every time.

   When I got my iPhone, one of the things I missed was the little Windows Mobile BART app. I don’t take BART regularly, but maybe once or twice a month so I don’t have the times memorized.

   I ended up creating a iPhone BART web app. It basically provides the same info but in a more iPhone friendly layout.

   You can also bookmark your trip reqwests. If you choose current time, your bookmark will will be the “current time” whenever you check.

   BART put out a trip planner for Palm devices that I used and loved. I’m in the minority probably, but as an iPod Touch user I’d like to see a standalone BART application similar to the Palm app, as opposed to one that relies on a data connection. Better yet, a bay-area-wide transit trip-planning application.
