I have it on my Storm, but the functionality is weak.

Well I got a Droid Incredible a couple of weeks ago to replace my Blackberry, and the difference in the phones is amazing. I now know what you guys were talking about when you said that the Arbiter doesn't work on the Droid browser. Were you guys not able to log in at all? That's the problem I'm having. I guess I'll download Opera for the Arbiter, even though the Droid's browser is good enough for everything else.

Thanks to whomever it was who suggested the Opera browser for a Blackberry. Neither the standard browser, nor the Bolt browser would allow me (BB Curve 8130i) to go beyond the schedule page of Arbiter. And while it's true that it isn't exactly the quickest way to get around the program, at least all the functions of Arbiter seem to work so that I can at least block dates or accept games while away from my laptop.
Not exactly a sacramental offering--I still have to work to get around in the program --it's at least a start until Arbiter comes through on its promise to have an "App" available by late summer.

This week, a full version (10.1) of the Opera browser was released for the Android market. Although it's still in beta testing (it is a little quirky), it appears to have the functionality needed so that accessing Arbiter is much improved over the earlier, mini version.

I wonder what summer they were talking about?

Arbiter works just peachy on Iphone, and has been a big help a few times.

Works very well with Opera...sucks on Safari.

What issues are you having with Safari? Arbiter seems to work fine for me with it.

I'm not sure if it was the 2.2 Android update or what, but the Arbiter has been working fine on both the Incredible and the Droid X for quite a while now on the stock Android browser. It also works on Opera and the Dolphin HD browser as well.

My experience with arbiter on opera was of the "better than nothing" variety. Very limited functionality and a big pain to work. Maybe it's better on something other than the BB Storm.

I have the Samsung Captivate which I got about two weeks ago when switching my plan to a full data plan with AT&T. I contacted Arbiter Sports and they told me it won't work on many browsers on Android phones, but have noticed a lot of people commenting on using Opera Mini on Android Phones. They are working on a mobile version of their website to allow officials to accept games while away from their computer. I accepted a few games this last week using my computer while I was away from home. Does work decently enough to get the job done. I hope they come out with a mobile version of it soon though. They anticipate it to be done by the end of the year, knock on wood.
