How Often Do You access DT.Org via Cell Phone/PDA?
I don't have an internet friendly phone right now, so never.
However - I plan on getting Iphone early next year so if the option is available I will definitely be perusing .org from my phone whenever I don't have access to a computer.
The reason I am asking is there is the possibility of a phone friendly stripped down skin that loads very quickly, but unless people actually surf the site via mobile options, it isn't worth the bother.
I check out the site on my iPhone quite often. It's a bit of a hassle, but I do it when I'm stuck in a boring meeting or in a waiting room somewhere.

I tried but it's just too big and cumbersome. A mobile site/addy would be awesome!
Adding a "mobile" skin is much more complicated (though achievable) than the 8 skins we have. Software has to be added to the skin/site, so that phones automatically go to the streamlined site.
Here is an example of another message board, and the mobile version:

I usually do when I am on break at work. Right now I only read posts and don't reply because it is pretty annoying to do so on the iphone. I would greatly welcome a mobile skin.
There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.
I don't own, nor do I plan to own, either.

I voted "never" because my cellphone is a completely stripped down edition, but I may be hooking up an iPhone soon. In that case, I'd love to check out a workable mobile site.

I do access the website on my iPod Touch quite often (works similar to an iPhone) which works fine because its browser is very good. On my 3+ year old cell phone the site doesn't work properly but I don't really feel the need to go online with my phone anyway.
I have the iPhone 4 and the Internet on it looks and works almost like on an actual computer, so it's never really much of a burden. I actually often switch from mobile to regular versions of sites.
I guess because I'm so interactive on this site... logging in and replying to posts on a PDA/Phone - it would just take too long to type on that tiny keyboard/number pad.

I should have read the whole question before answering.. I am sorry. Take one from 'often' and give it to 'never'.
Roland would have understood.
My cell is pretty old so not the most convenient way to surf the Net - therefore voted "Never".
And when I have the time to be on TDT.org, I'm usually around computers anyway.
If you are going through hell - keep going
I'm traveling for Thanksgiving now so my iPhone is the only way until I get to a computer in a few days. Posting with it is not that hard.
My phone is ancient... it wouldn't dream of accessing anything

90% of the time I use my desktop and my laptop. 10% I use my iPod touch.

If there was an app for my iTouch I would use it frequently
Yeah I access on my iPhone daily. Obviously by my number of posts, you can tell that hasn't been for too long though...
I think a mobile site would be useful however.
