I feel your pain, been there myself a LONG time ago. Gotten over it, moved on, adapted and overcome. I'll sign your petition, just because.

Guess I'm so used to not having "THAT" app or "THAT" game etc, that it doesn't bother me as much anymore. (Trust me I've started a few of these threads myself, and gotten little response from the developers).

I think we're the ones that get the "special" treatment, not the other way around

LOL, I know. Was just pointing out there are still developers bringing new stuff to webOS.

At this point there are many that are boycotting Zynga with there recent rip-off app, so I don't know if I would personally support them even if they built the app for webOS. Now I am all for supporting Astraware, will be buying Odd Blob, then Casino, and anything else you folks see fit to port.

Thanks.

Maybe you should ask the Nimblebit guys to bring Tiny Tower to the Touchpad instead!

all I really want is a scrabble like game for WebOS, apps play a large part in the buying of devices, in my opinion.

Then you're admitting you didn't do your research?

Okay, that does it. I'm not going to port Quixotic over to Android.

Stickin' it to the man, baby!

You can play FB Words with friends on a TP, I don`t play it often, but it works. You have to clear the wrong browser message and then to move letters, hold down letter and move with one finger while the other finger holds bottom of screen so it doesn't zoom out. I know its crazy, but, in desparation I tried it and it works ,but like I say its work

wish it was easier.
