a site that supports the regular PDA software like PALM OS or pocket PC or the like.
I know it sounds bad that I want to play on a PDA but I was just interested to know if there was anything of the sort out there.

I think a tablet PC is as close as you are going to get.

A Sharp Zaurus with some sort of Java client could allow you to play on some sites maybe...
Tablet PC or the smallest laptop you can find is obviously not as portable, but more realistic.

if you want to play online against bots (not for money) try Touch Poker for pda. several Texas Holdem pocketpc variants, but the best for whiling away the time on buses etc is Crazy Bird's All-In Hold'Em which you can try for a month free. look on tucows.com or similar
I use it to sharpen up my 6-max game (maximum players are 8)
surprised no-one like Ladbrokes has a way of taking yer money off you online with a pda - I can bet horses, play blackjack etc but not get into a real money poker game. let me know if you find one (and I'll see you there)

I've got a pocket pc by dell, it actually has Java on it, I can go as far as load their client but I cant play on it. I think i'm just one version of java short of playing. Then again, Pacific's java version doesnt work on my desktop pc either so, there you go.

I am having problems too with Pacific. I am also interested in buying a pda (HPrx3115), so what about using another java platform poker room, like checkandraise or another one, have you tried?

mtbottle - I may come to curse you for this info, but for now - you're a god. Airport waiting will never be the same again.

Is anyone playing on their phones yet? This is something I'm interested in, but I have no idea which phones are supported or where to go to play.
