Over the Air install site
 
I've started a new site, http://www.otainstall.com, that is designed to let you quickly install apps from PocketIE on your phone. It's password protected for now, just to keep the volume limited a bit. You can log in with the password 'blahblah'.

It's pretty new, so please let me know any bugs that you find. Also note that you should be able to upload apps to the site so that others can download them.

I'll be taking suggestions on category name improvements, etc..

Let me know what you think! :)

I just uploaded a program and it went pretty smoothly. I have yet to try to install something though. Nice job by the way.

added another program just now. Tried out the install and the prompt came up pretty quickly. good work.

Sounds like a cool idea...but when I enter the password, all I see is a white page.

There was an error that I think I fixed. Please hit me up in a PM if you still have problems with what brower/phone you are using. Thanks for letting me know!

Ok... this is an AWESOME site!

Suggestion: add a disclaimer that you are not responsible for content downloaded just in case someone gets a virus...

Now, is it alright if I upload my library of updated .cab files? I have about 300MB worth current software...?

WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW

Dude...seriously cool as I thought. Most definitely add the disclaimer. And when I get time I will upload everything that I have that hasn't been uploaded.

Any ways to do checks on the backend to see if a cab has already been uploaded? I could see this becoming a maintenance nightmare if people upload without searching first...

Yea, also, with the disclaimer, add a check box at the bottom of every download page that says 'I understand the risks of downloading software from any site. I will not hold OTAInstall liable for any damage caused to my device, or for any copyright infringement.'
