Wireless Devices and Arbiter

What wireless phones have you been able to use to access the arbiter. I am looking at getting a new smart phone with Verizon and am thinking of the Droid, Palm Pre or a blackberry.

Any experience anyone has with these phones and the arbiter site would be of assistance.

I-Phone works great with The Arbiter, but the problem is the I-Phone doesn't work great as a Phone. (AT&T) Good luck with your choice.

I've got the Storm, and it allows me to view arbiter, but the functionality isn't that great and I haven't figured out how to get it to remember my password. Others said the browser for blackberry doesn't work well with Arbiter, so I use Opera.

I just tried to get on with my Curve and it said I didn't have Javascript. I'm no expert when it comes to phones...for now I think I'll stick to my laptop

I also have a Storm and it let's me view and accept assignments, but I can't block dates. It also won't remember my password, says that it needs Javascript and is hard to see. However, for those crunch times when you need to look up your schedule on the go or onsite...it can be helpful.

Exactly, but I haven't figured out how to view and accept assignments. It might be that viewing is so hard I just don't bother. It has helped in a crunch, though, to find addresses.

My BlackBerry Pearl will access the site but will not allow me to navigate. Very frustrating. Next phone purchase will be an iPhone.

If the iPhone becomes available through Verizon, I'll consider it. In the meantime, I'm going to find out how my friends like the Droid before I upgrade next year.

Not possible without a major redesign. The iPhone is a GSM phone; Verizon has a CDMA network.

I'd be interested in hearing feedback you get about the Droid. I've heard nothing about it in terms of running the Arbiter.

I use this. In fact, I just upgraded to it.

Thanks for playing.
