I recently started to use a Blackberry and was wondering if there are
any IF interpreters for it? I have a Blackberry 7520. Any input would
be much appreciated.

Well, most Blackberry devices are pretty standard J2ME (aka JME)
devices, CLDC 1.1, MIDP2.0. Shame you didn't ask a couple of months
ago, I had one on my desk.

Googling for j2me zcode interpreter yields
http://www.gizmo-a-gogo.org/ZeeME/

I've not tried it (and can't). The way you package a zcode file with
the interpreter is a bit funky, but I can see why they do it like that
(minimises programmer effort).

Hope that helps some.

Thanks, drj! I downloaded it to my BB and it works good, except I'm
having problems when I restore a saved game...oh well. It's still a fun
coversation piece! Smile

Sorry, I can't help. I did play Dork I on a Boysenberry once, but it
crashed.
