Updating game interaction: The New Frontier

So, like a new girlfriend, eve steals my thoughts away at work often.
"Did my market orders fill?"
"Did I remember to skill change?"
"Oh, I should check commodity x, I may make some money trading it!"
"How are the prices of ice products doing today?"

Needless to say, some day's I'm quite excited to get home to play with my spreadsheets, update orders, and oggle at the latest dev blog from CCP Recurve! (no offense to all the other great CCP people out there, but if I had the chance to meet with only one person from CCP, it would hands down be Recurve, followed by the rest of the economics staff.)

However, I also have an android... which got me thinking.

Why isn't there an Eve Gate app?

Why can't I DO cool in-game stuff from eve gate?

I want to feel like a big-wig New York Stock Exchange trader and be able to do trading while having lunch in Anchorage, from the beaches in Hawaii, on my private G650 or while taking a dump in a McDonald's bathroom.


TL;DR:
Please make Eve Gate interact more with the game (Skillque, asset browser, market browser, item browser, etc), then make a useful android app so that I (and many many other nerds) can play your game even more.

P.S.
I would <3 if the quarterly reports came back too... Nerd porn, best porn.

To my understanding the old API system wouldn't allow this however with the new API system from what i read this all sounds possible. Of course apps will be developed by players so we will have to wait and see what happens.
