@keith yeah I bought myself a "windows" tablet specifically to try and use some of those programs on course and it just wasn't processing quickly enough unfortunately. Obviously speed is of the essence when playing inplay on the horses so any lag etc can be really costly. I even dropped a couple of emails to some of the existing betfair software firms to see if they could just develop a really quick web/android based one click platform, as I am sure if you already have access to the Exchange API and computing knowledge it cant be that difficult, and I would imagine potentially hugely in demand and profitable given that essentially courtsiders and many other in play market players would want it. Any tech app developers out there???? please get one sorted!!!
Yes there does seem an obvious need I agree Richard but there must be some reason why one of the big companies haven't brought one out. I suspect like you that the technology to get the bets in quick enough isn't easy to build or the cost to maintain it is great.
