Yesterday night I was not able to log into Forums with pc, so I made a try with my Nokia 9300 Communicator. The connection over gprs was ok, though slowish. I could view and reply but not use drop-down menus. The screen resolution is 640x200 so I have to scroll the pictures. Still that was doable. Also the colors seemed to be pretty good.

I assume POTN engine is not optimised by any means to PDAs. Could this be an area for further development? (Or is that taking place already?)

This is how POTN home page looks in the Communicator.

Also, with PDA try disabling/enabling Javascript, this will most likely be the cause for menu trouble. I do not code vBulletin, so there is not much I can do about code problems there....

Thanks Pekka, archive works well with Communicator, for text postings. I'll also check javascript disabling and how things work then. Let's hope the coding guys in vBulletin will do a good work on PDA area as well :)

[And thanks for moving to the thread to right Forum.]

Works fine on my Verizon iPAQ. Also looks..alright, on my treo 650. I make regular trips home to spend hours here. :-D

Works fine, except for screen width, on my PPC Toshiba e800; readable, but graphics-challenged, on the BlackBerry.

that seems pretty nifty, how much does it cost?

that seems pretty nifty, how much does it cost?Not sure if you mean this Nokia 9300, but if you are in US, I've heard the at least Cingular is going to sell that. Here is a news bit from late September http://www.brighthand.com/article/Nokia_9300_Coming_to_Cingular_2, don't know are they already selling it.

Non-subsidised price seems to be somewhere below $600.

Ron & Jon, if you still have look at this thread, would be nice to have a picture how PONT looks in your PDAs' screens. - Or anybody else using PDA for Forums? Post a picture!
