    Which device do you carry?

    In my experience, CFL-related apps are weak and unlikely to be key determinants in anyone's phone selection, but I'm curious about what my fellow Argo fans wield. Which is your preference, and why?

    FWIW, I carry an HTC 8x. This is partly because of its low physical volume and friendly dimensions, partly because I quite like the Windows Phone interface, and partly because it's easy on the eyes. Apparently I'm fond of "California Blue"!

    Cool

    I carry the original devices.

    Edged weapons.

    Their quantity and length is classified, of course.


    Ka' Pla !

    I carry a wallet and vehicle keys and Rayban Wayfarers on eyes. One day could be truck keys, the other car.

    Rayban Wayfararers? Cool. One of my favourite Reggae bands. Eek-a-Mouse is still my favourite.


    But then I'm old school.

    Cool

    Ok, any thread that begins with Wobbler asking a serious question, and then me and then 1argoholic and then me responding, is not off to an auspicious start. So if anyone out there wields any reasonably inauspicious devices, now is your time to shine. We thank you in advance.

    I carry a cellphone. It has no apps.


    But congrats to you, ArgoRavi, for carrying a Motorola. Now that's, old school. I'm impressed.



    On a side-note, I've heard/read somewhere, that there will be a new app coming out soon,

    which will suggest to you, what apps to get and what to do with them, or at the very least,

    suggest what apps to have, in case anyone ever (though I can't possibly imagine why), ever asks you,

    "What apps do you have?"


    No doubt Ti-Cat fans will have apps which show them once having teeth; albeit in their infancy, or shortly thereafter.

    Do you access this site from your phone, Ravi and LLB997? I'm curious about whether it is mobile device-friendly, in general. ArgoFans doesn't have a dedicated app (for obvious reasons), so the web interface needs to be mobile friendly.

    In my experience (WP8) it is OK, but far from ideal. How is it from an iOS and Android perspective?

    I have an iPhone 4S and I find this site works pretty well accessing it through Safari. Chrome is also available for iOS but I've never used it.

    Vbullitian 5 is very mobile friendly. I don't feel it's worth the investment right now though.

    I currently am using a blackberry z10 however, And with the recent update it has made browsing here much better. All the test resizes and it's mostly optimized.

    Mulder, have you ever considered the Tapatalk plugin? I originally thought it was free, which would have made it a lot more appealing (it's actually $99), but it is a decent way to give any vbulletin site an app interface. Whether enough Argofans users would use it to justify it is pretty debatable, though.

    I have a BlackBerry Z10 and a BlackBerry Q10 (work) and the site works well on both aside from the multi quote feature. The CFL App is just okay.
