Just finished testing it using a blackberry, and it works great. There are no graphics and everything is just the bare bones, meaning that the biggest page (aside from topics) is only 2.5 k.
However, there are some caveats:
1. It won't work on my Samsung phone, but then again, my samsung phone is going on seven years. Not sure why it won't work, but I'm trying to fix it.
2. If it won't work for you, let me know. In order to make it work, I have to put in individual phone manufacturers. Right now, I think it's good for 90% of people, but if it won't work for you, list your phone manufacturer here along with whatever error message you get.
3. The private messages thing does not work yet. I'm working on that, and I should have it done soon. The number one reason I wanted to do this was so I could reply to my PMs from anywhere, so it's definitely coming.
Refinements that are coming soon:
- Right now, if you log in on your phone, the database will mark that as your last visit. So once you log in from your computer, only the posts made since you visited on your phone will be in the "Since your last visit" link. Shouldn't be too hard to fix that though.
- One link for the "hottest" forums (i.e., the ten most popular).
- Improved navigation
So far, it's already working great on my blackberry, but if your phone was made more than three years ago, you may experience some issues.
