I just developed a web application for the iPhone called iPick-a-Brick:

http://www.brickbuildr.com/iPaB/

This is the current list of part on the PaB wall at the LIC in Orlando, FL... as of yesterday (minus a few more parts I still need to enter into the database... I really hate data entry).

Anyway, I’d like to enter PaB data from other LEGO stores. If anyone wants to e-mail me some of that information, I would greatly appreciate it, but please contact me first before sending data... I’d like for the part information to be mapped back to a X/Y coordinate on the PaB wall -- this will make updating the information much easier later...

In the mean time, over the next week or so, I’ll be working on a way for ‘trusted’ people to log into the web-site, and update a store’s inventory in real time. If you live close to a LEGO store with a PaB and would like to help keep this on-line inventory up-to-date, e-mail me. Will will be able to do it on-line via a iPhone (or any mobile device with a web-browser).

Some Disclaimers: This web-site does not guarantee the accuracy of a store’s inventory; some items may be sold out or the information on this web-site may be inaccurate or out-of-date. Information for this web-site is only to be used for reference. If you find this list to be out-of-date, please help us by e-mail us with updates.

--Mike.

(...) I would love to help you with the Oregon Store PaB list. I work at the store and handle all the PaB ordering and stocking of the wall. So giving you updates will be easy when parts are added. Our store gets lots of traffic so the wall (...) (17 years ago, 7-Apr-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

I had always wanted an easy way to have my parents pick up stuff from the PaB wall, without knowing how to find out what was there, or how to tell them what to get. If this is updated anywhere regularly, it could help a bunch! PaB seems much more (...) (17 years ago, 8-Apr-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) (snip) (...) I would like to provide brickfo for the PaB wall at Bel Square, WA as soon as I get to go there again. Suggestion: Instead of X/Y, use R/C, R for Row, C for Column. Even for those of us familiar with X/Y, it's a bit confusing (...) (17 years ago, 2-May-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)
