You can access this site on your cell phone! Try it out!

Only problem is: you can't log in (or if you can, I haven't found out how, yet). The text boxes and stuff for the login page don't show up on mobile phones (probably written using a non-wireless web format?). So you can browse and read posts, but you can't post yourself.

(NOTE TO MODS: if you want to, you can make the links in the top right corner more mobile-friendly, ya know what I mean?)

How much you get charged for that 10 cents a second?

I have a verizon cell phone.

Yes, mine works too. Pointless though - because the forum renders REALLY poorly on a 240 x 160 screen. :P

Plus, I pay 10c/KB of data outside of my ISP's WAP network...

The only time I'll use it is to finda company's street address or phone number - as it's usually cheaper to visit their web site on my phone, than it is to ring directory assistance.

I don't have Internet on my phone, but to look up numbers and stuff I text message Google (#46645 = GOOGL). Great feature. Maybe that would be cheaper for you, Mobi.

I have a PDA which works great on here, and that links into my phone's internet connection via bluetooth. Rawr ;)

I have a 640x480 PDA with Wifi. Works well enough, but can't be bothered to surf with it. It's very useful for hands-free and hassle-free Skype, though.

Of all the reasons to pay for a cell phone - accessing the dbb has got to be right up there.

phpBB isn't exactly designed for mobile devices. ;)
