Hi everyone.
I was at Disneyland yesterday and a woman told me there was a mobile website for Blackberry users, that could give you up to the minute wait times for the lines to the rides. Does anyone know what site that is? I have been looking and can't find anything.
Thanks!

I don't know if they have one. I have an iPhone and they have an app for this, however, the app is never accurate. Like one time it said 45 minutes for space mountain and I rushed to space and it was 75 minutes!!!! We should petition Disney into creating an app that is linked to the kiosk at Main Street to indicate wait times.

I know there is an official Disney wait time app for Verizon, but other than that there are a lot of different apps similiar that are made by various people.

Verizon has a partnership with Disney which allows them to have the most accurate wait times to provide to guests with verizon's service.

Other options are various apps available for the iPhone and for the most part, would vary on accuracy depending on the number of users and the number of those users which are in the park since for the most part, relies on user submitted info...

You beat me to that info ryanville lol, I had heard somewhere last time that yeah Verizon had a really good disney app that had wait times and all sorts of disney stuff, I think its around $10 or so but if you go a lot its probably worth it. I have an iPhone so I cant take advantage but i hear it has lots of cool stuff on the app.

The ones I have on my Iphone that are free are, Mousewait (GREAT app with lots of info on the park as well as some of the most accurate wait times, definitely recommend), DL Wait Times, & WDW Wait Times. The ones I paid 99 cents or more for are the Disneyland map App, the California Adventures map app, DL Walkee app (which is an all in one app, wait times, restaurants,etc), Toy Store Mania (great app if you love the ride), WDW Secrets Notescast, DL Secrets Notescast, Disneyland park Guide Notescast!

A quick search reveals its called Mobile Magic

I'm with AT&T so I'm not quite sure as to how it actually performs or if its worth the money, but looks like it's worth checking out.

I just find it funny Disney hasn't teamed up with Apple yet to develop something for the iPhone (heck, I cant even access D23's site on my iPhone). The reason I say this is because Disney and Apple seem to have a very strong connection with Steve Jobs being a board of director and major stock holder of the Walt Disney Company. From what I hear, he's even taking a major part in the design of the new Disney Stores, so we'll see what that move can eventually do to the parks :)
