hey There, i just tried to get on the Chat Room while on my mobile (using the Opera browser) and it just came up with a blank screen. I was just wondering if you could make the chat compatible with mobiles? This is probably a big request, but it was worth asking about.

Thanks
Sean
 
I've been hoping the same while using my iPhone It looks like it almost wants to come up with a "loading" logo... but never pops up. Would love to be in chat while I'm still out of the house.
 
Damn you guys with your Iphones!! I have a Nokia smartphone that does the job, with a ipod touch for music. So a multi formated chat would be needed as not everybody jumped on the Apple touch/iphone bandwagon
 
The DPF site itself runs okay with my blackberry curve, but most java and flash required sites aren't blackberry friendly so the chat is out.

Our current chat software just isn't compatible with mobile devices. We do, however, hope to purchase new chat software that is.

The chat software we have our eye on provides all the features we feel our members would want and enjoy, but is fairly costly. So, nothing official yet on when to expect that.
 
Actually our current chat software _does_ support iphones, android-based phones and i believe, blackberry devices, however, our current service level does not allow for it. Believe me, i was kinda bummed when i found that it "looks" like it wants to load on my iPhone and iPad, but it never does, due to the level we're at with the provider. I believe the "elite/pro" package (or whatever they call it) allows the chat to come up on mobile phones. It's been a while since I checked on the pricing.
