Probably, but only after the iTards invariably get it first

Sorry, I know that wasn't helpful at all. I just like to gripe. I'd like an app like this too.

Wait what? You want to be able to rent dvds via your mobile phone?

Yeah, like you can on their website. You log in, you pick what movie, and it shows you which local vending machines have it available. So you reserve it at the vending machine you think is most convenient, and then you go pick it up after work.

It would basically make the functions of the website quickly and easily available on a small screen.

^^^^^ bingo! well put

opera mini works ok with the online renting but would be way better with an app. oh well :/

Surely making this app can't be all-to-difficult. Basically you build an interface that interacts with their website, trimming off most of the visual stuff and keeping the essentials like login, find a movie/Redbox, reserve.... I've never made an app nor know how to, I think I will research this to find out if I can make one!! That would be cool...
