Palm Pre and Pixie users no longer have to look jealously at their friends with iPhones, Blackberry‘s and Android phones. We all owe a huge debt of thanks to Brightkite users barkerja and kylepauljohnson who have built Parafoil – a native Brightkite app for the Palm webOS.
You can download the app from Palm, starting today. For more information on Parafoil, see their site or follow them on Twitter or Facebook.
Today is also barkerja‘s birthday – so as well as thanking him for Parafoil, be sure to cut him a slice of cake, pour him a glass of something, or tickle his ferret. Happy birthday John!
Thanks once again to John and Kyle. Screenshots of Parafoil below:

OK, iPhones and Android are the last months fashion, but Palm WebOS??? How many hundreds devices did they sell? Why still nothing for Symbian, which still has almost 50% of the world market share and keep selling millions of smartphones?

For every positive thing that is created or done on Brightkite there is always a negative reaction.
Flavio, remember that this has not been created by anyone who works at Brightkite.
On the subject of Symbian... they're working on it: /save/_embed/http://blog.brightkite.com/2010/01/07/come-see-br...

Thanks! I'm one happy BrightKite user. I saw Parafoil in the App Catalog, but had no idea it was for Brightkite.

Too bad it's a chargeable App, which means everyone in Europe can't download it... :(

I hope it will be available for New Zealand at some point. This looks really cool!
