Mobile friendly forum?

Any chance of getting a mobile friendly version of this forum?  Both the BB Browser and Opera Mini have trouble scaling this forum.  Takes almost a minute to scroll across one page.

Must be nice to have a job like you Burley.

Hey Bizz, did you hide in the bunker after the Chile earthquake?

Ive been sick as a dog for a couple days. I slept.

Burley, I had a BB for months, and it seemed to load the forum just fine. Mine was through Sprint, don't know how much, if any that had to do with it.

It loads fine.  The page just doesn't scale.  Opera Mini offers the best zoom option, but I can't login using that browser.

I have no issues using opera mini on my BB. I can log in and post and use PM's with no trouble at all. But it does take a little while to scroll from top to bottom.

Not a complaint, just an honest question.  Several forums I visit have mobile options.

And I'm off work until 3/8.   8-)

Works great on all Android phones. Maybe you need to get a new phone. ::)

Really?   ::)

I ask an honest question and this is what I get?

Ah, the ribber can't take the ribbing? And I thought you of all people would appreciate sarcasm.

Ok, here's the serious answer, which isn't too far from my original answer.  Although accessing websites via phones is definitely on the rise, folks doing so are still very much in the minority. In addition, the new phones do an excellent job of rendering web pages now without the need for special coding by websites.  And these phones have been out for over a year now.  Since most people upgrade their phones every 2-3 years, there's little need nor incentive to recode an entire website that may get used for only a couple of years - if that - for a minority of visitors.

Sorry if that sounds harsh.  But the reality is I need to focus my efforts on things that benefit the many for years to come.

As you are so fond of reminding me, there is no sarcasm font.   ;)

I changed a couple of settings and it is a lot better.  At least nowhere near as much side to side scrolling.

One more vote for the Droid, buddy.  Loads fast on this phone.
