Default HDForums Mobile version?

Say out of curiosity, is there a Mobile version of HDForums??

I travel a lot and like this forum, and although I can pull this site up on my PDA, a mobile version would make things faster, was curious if there is such said version

Or if not is there enough demand for one? Not sure what it takes and how hard it would be to set up.

I have no control over it guys. I have the same problem. I can pull it up on the smart phone but it's way too large to manage. I'm not sure how much is involved in all of this. I'll see what I can find out.

If I'm traveling long distance I'll have my laptop with me (requirement of my job) so I have no problem logging in unless I'm somewhere where there's no cell signal.

Here is a possible solution guys. I have a Blackberry. Using their browser some sites (this one included) was very hard to navigate, just too large. I ran across a software browser Opera that works great. It was written specifically for PDA's and Smart phones. I have no trouble with any of the sites I frequent (including this one). The browser has some quirks, don't know it that is blackberry or all of them, but you can always take it out if you don't like it.

http://www.opera.com/

be sure you download the version for cell phones and PDA's.

Good Luck

another option that I have been trying is skyfire
It is still beta, but I haven't had glitches with it and I like how it loads and using it is nice.
