Hi Richard, The Channel API doesn't use websockets, as they're not widely deployed yet. Instead, it (currently!) uses long-polling.
I'm not familiar with Phonegap or Titanium, but your best option is probably to use existing push messaging solutions available on each device. Apple provides a Push API, and Android has the Cloud To Device Messaging API. -Nick Johnson On Wed, Feb 9, 2011 at 11:54 AM, Richard Arrano <rickarr...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hello, > I was thinking about how to integrate my App Engine app with mobile > devices; my favorite choices so far are phonegap and Titanium, and it > seems relatively simple to port things to these platforms.
