One of the great things about the old Net54 forum was that it was easy to access and use from a mobile device such as a BlackBerry or iPhone. I am having increased difficulty with the current Net54baseball forum when it comes to using my BlackBerry, including:

1. Not being able to scroll through an entire thread;
2. Posting/responding is an absolute bear; and
3. PMs either cannot be (or I have not figured out how to) read

Does anybody else have this issue? Are there any solutions?

Not that this will help much but it works fine on my Iphone. I hate the thing but it really is handy and the interface is good.

I tried checking the site on my Blackberry Storm and my experience was about the same, but that seems to be the case on most websites that don't specifically have a "mobile" version.

I use the iPhone 3GS half of the time I'm on the site, works great for me!

Must be a BlackBerry browser shortcoming ....figures.

I'd get an iPhone but I really hate iTunes and like that I keep all my songs on a removable SD-mini card that is easily transferable among my devices/PCs.

You can change your browser to an IE browser on a BlackBerry.

Actually, I did some searching based on this suggestion and decided to go with the Bolt browser. So far it is much better for going through Net54baseball than the default BB browser. Thanks!

Lucky for me my Verizon contract is up in July and I can get rid of this stupid Blackberry. :mad:
