Description:
Unlike other IMDb apps which parse IMDb pages for information, this app uses the iPhone IMDb API to retrieve information from IMDb.com and display it on your Windows Mobile.

Important Info:
- This application downloads a lot of data. Please ensure you're using an unlimited data plan.
- The "Download Thumbnails" feature is unstable. If you're experiencing a lot of errors, switch this off & soft-reset the device.
- The application downloads data as-required. Therefore a constant data connection is preferred. Areas where signal is intermittent may cause errors.

Features:
- Screen/Orientation Independant.
- User Ratings/Reviews.
- External Reviews.
- Search Movies/TV/Video Games/Actors.
- Finger-friendly interface.
- DVD Covers.
- Actor Headshots.
- Trivia.
- Quotes.
- Photos.
- Top 250.
- Coming Soon List.
- Videos/Trailers.
- Goofs.
- App-To-Date Support.
- TV Episode Listings.
