Mobile viewer for site? Do you? would you?

[vievetrick]

I gotta say I check more on my iphone then I thought I would. It is a little harder to respond but, I do it very often. Maybe not so much in Romania but more people here in the US are going mobile. It is a blessing and a curse

I've come up with an alternative solution that should work almost just as well as a mobile skin: simply visit http://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/archive/?pda=1 from your PDA/phone, and the system will allow you to browse the text-only archive for the duration of your stay. If you don't specify "?pda=1", you would be redirected to the regular version of the site whenever trying to view a thread.

The one downside to this is that you cannot make any new posts or threads, so I'll still spend a bit of time trying to get the other system working.

Could anyone access the site from a phone or a PDA (other and the iPhone, which can handle the regular skin) and let me know how everything looks? Thanks!

Ah, that explains why there is a change on my BlackJack. I use it frequently at work, even more so now that my PC's mobo is being RMA'd...

Actually I prefer the choice of skins with Pocket IE, and normally use the Classic Skin, which is what prefer. Adam: any chance of giving us the skins options back?

You've automatically forced the simple skin for all mobile devices. Any chance of giving us the option to choose our skins again?

Ah, I see- that modification is currently disabled, but if I do get it to work, the mobile skin will be forced for all mobile devices with simple browsers. iPhones, PocketPCs, and some PDAs which can use the normal layout will be excluded and you'd be able to choose the skin you want.

It way it is right now is quite readable and opening a thread is better too. With the exception, as you said, you cannot post.

Also gone is the "New Posts". This is however available if I open a thread.

Thanks for the extra work you're doing Adam.
