Not sure if this has been discussed before, but would it be possible to have a mobile friendly version of the site? I visit this site from my phone while I'm at work. Sometimes it can take forever to load.

What a spectacularly excellent idea. I wholeheartedly agree with this request. I suspect we won't be the only ones either...

I say, mobile phones? What will they think of next!

There's not much I can do regarding a mobile friendly version. It seems pretty fast on my iPhone over 3G though.

There is an iPhone app for the forums, but it's only available in the US at the mo. This would make it much nicer to use on the iPhone, but not much good for the rest of ya.

We have a mobile friendly version of my site. It requires an extra domain. It is nothing fancy, just basic text.

Ok there's a mod I'll add. Let's see how it works.

Ok it's currently working if you go to exactly this page for the forums:

Or the front page which will always have a few www. links on it that will take you back to the non mobile version:

That's excellent - just the sort of thing that makes this site great! 'Problem' posed, solution almost immediate. :849:

Impressed with how quickly this one was turned around, good work.

Site looks good on iPhone without mobile-friendly version but handy for when out of wifi range and relying on clunky 3G.
