Hello everyone! Related to this topic, I would like to add that I make moves whilst away from the computer on a Nokia 6680 terminal, with Opera 8.5 as browser. The only problem is that the board is too big and I can't easily get the "big picture"..

I will be doing a live test tonight (from my local pub, no less) on Windows Mobile 5 with IE. I will post the results tomorrow.

Failed horribly.

I will need to produce a no-thrills interface after all.

I will. When the new board is in beta, I will produce the mobile interface so both can be launched at the same time.

okay well I can see the board by scrolling and such, but nothing in the way of being able to select any pieces.

and it's weird on forums. I get the header, then have to scroll halfway down to see the first post. FENs also don't show up.

let me know if you want me to test new mobile features.

Hello-

I have a Palm T|X and can wirelessly access the site using Palm's Blazer web browser. The site largely works as expected - including the analysis board, with two major (and several minor) exceptions:

1) The small size board is slighty bigger than the Palm T|X screen. A board that was 75-80% the size of the small board would be perfect.

2) Even more importantly, the submit "Move" button does not work. The screen refreshes, but the move does not register.

If there is any way of providing a smaller board and fixing the submit button, RHP palm users would be very happy.

Thanks much for the effort...

Same on a Palm Lifedrive.

I had planned on asking to test this when the new board code was ready - see earlier in this thread and the thread "The beta board code is complete!" for more details.
