Just to let you know that we have currently released our first application called MovieDB.
This application allows you to search for movies based on their Title, the Actor[s] that star in them or the Director that, well, directed them. Once a movie is located you can then find more information out about it, such as listing the quotes that are memorable to that film, or finding out who wrote the music scored.
This application uses it’s own database server and does not rely on the IMDB server at all, although it does use the Alternative Interfaces at IMDB. These are a set of files that list all the actors and films currently available. Currently (02 April 2010) it counts over 1.577.000 movies and over 1.856.000 actors/actresses. The Java Movie Database, a Java program, was used to convert the Alternative Interfaces into our back-end PostgreSQL database.
We hope to have some tutorials and the documentation done shortly. Below are some sample screen-shots of the application running on Android 1.5
