Default Is there a pda/smartphone version of rennlist?

I would like to see if I can view rennlist from my smartphone.

I don't know of a mobile version of rennlist, but I've been able to use rennlist fairly effectively (if slowly) via my BlackBerry 7250, and Pocket Internet Explorer does a good job with it on PocketPC 2003SE and Windows Mobile 5.0, so depending on your device, you should be able to just load it up from there. What kind of phone do you have?

I have a Q, though I'm just starting to learn how to use it. I've been viewing Rennlist through a google proxy server.

Ah. You'll probably have decent luck with just opening rennlist directly, though I'd be sure you're good on your data plan before doing any serious rennlisting... Data charges can get expensive if you're not aware (you're probably well aware of this- I just thought I'd toss that one out there!).

I'm answering on my PDA smartphone. It's a Treo running Windows PocketPC with Verizon service.

So you are just going to the normal www.rennlist.com site?

. . .fast as hell on my BB 8700g with EDGE. When I do not have EDGE service and just the GPRS, it is much slower.

If you want to speed things up, go into your control panel and uncheck 'visible post elements' so you don't waste time loading avatars, signatures, or anything with an image tag.

I use the normal site.

I used to have the Q, but ended up returning it after running the battery down, recharging it, and finding that it was locked up and couldn't be resurrected.

I ended up getting a Treo 700p.

Yes, I just use the www.Rennlist.com, but usually only follow links from emails saying that a new post has appeared on a thread I subscribe to.

Verizon calls it "Wireless Broadband" and it's faster in some areas than others.

I think the problem with my Q is that it doesn't support Frames. I get to a point where it says I need to upgrade my browser or click here. When I click there, I get to a page that shows the sponsors but no forum.

I usually will go directly to forums.rennlist.com/rennforums, now that you mention frames. That will give you just the forums with no frames around it.

FO3-

There is a registry hack that can be done to permit frames, if I recall correctly. If you're comfortable with that....
