I found a Pandora app that was written for windows mobile over at everythingq.com forums.

I installed it on my diamond and it works. A few quirks I've noticed so far:
1) Obviously not made for a VGA device, but I'm sure some of you might fare better than I. The text is waaay too small. I HAD to use my stylus.
2) To enter in your email and password, I exited out of the program, went back to the programs screen, activated the keyboard, and then opened the Pandora app.
3) For some reason, it does not show up in my task manager. I hope its just mine - it can be a b**** to exit out of (again - HAD TO USE THE STYLUS).
4) So far - it appears that my phone needs to stay awake in order to maintain a stream.

I'm hoping everyone here can figure out ways or registry hacks to get around these limitations, but the app itself is pretty sweet. Audio quality is pretty good too

No, there is not a Lil Wayne app for Windows Mobile, thank God! I would think there has to be a photo editing app where you can do similar things to pictures on the fly though. Although, nothing probably as crazy as the lil wayne app.

There isn't a native facebook app for WinMo. If you're using a Touch Pro (and possibly other phones but don't quote me on that) there is a hack you can do to get the web page to render the same as on the iphone. Do a search for it here on the boards and you should be able to find it.

Yeah, I know Pandora released an app for WinMo phones on at&t. As far as I knew you couldn't install it on other phones but I think the fine folks at xda are working on that. I'll do some more research before I update the first post with it.

Just letting anyone that didn't know, that there's a facebook app that's finally in development by someone at XDA. A lot of complaining that a lot of the other phones have a great app, but we still don't... all that may finally change!

Thanks for the tip!

It looks like the Pandora app located at everythingq is working pretty darn good on my 800w. Here's the link from xda that should take you to the op. The only problem I've noticed on my 800w is that pressing down on the 5-way lowers the volume and I can't figure out how to increase it again without exiting and restarting the app. But everything else works very well. Enjoy.

And thanks to pjsync for bringing this up earlier. Bravo.
