I use it to check bus times on my way to and from work. There are two
different buslines I can wait for, and no easy way to check which one will be
coming first - I have to load each page and compare. Also, loading the site on
my android phone almost always results in an error the first time - forcing me
to load the page again. I haven't taken the time to debug this yet, but it's
always annoying when I'm trying to check the bus times on the go.

Try using <http://metrotransit.org/map/> to solve your first problem (click a
stop and it will show NexTrip for all the bus routes that stop there). That
doesn't solve your second problem though: I have the same problems (and my
wife does on her iPhone). I have an Android app started... maybe I should
finish it. Is it worth $0.99 to you? :)

The two routes don't come to the same stop. I'm looking for an easy answer to
"Should I wait on Hennepin or Nicollet?" without waiting for multiple pages to
load on my phone.

I'd definitely pay $1 if I thought the app would address those two problems.

After reading the problems, I expected we were looking for dynamically
generated transit maps (excluding all lines/stops that aren't directly between
you and your destination), coupled with a statistical curve of actual arrival
times at each stop.

GPS is useful, but when planning a route in advance, I'd prefer to know the
above.
