View SimplyDV on your iPhone
We’re pleased to tell you that the SimplyDV website is now compatible with not only Apple’s iPhone and iPod Touch but also other touch-screen Smartphones, too.
And the great thing is that you don’t have to click any special buttons or navigate to special sub-domains or anything like. Just enter the website name into the phone’s browser and hit “go”.
It’s that easy!
Nice, clean interface
You’ll see that we’re giving mobile users a specially-formatted version of the site that’s much simpler, focuses primarily on the news and review pages and will therefore be more bandwidth-efficient. The good thing is that it’s all automatic (and doesn’t involve me in any more work at this end, either).
SimplyDV Mobile on the iPhone!
You’ll also notice that, since Apple doesn’t yet support Adobe Flash on its iPhone operating system, you won’t see any elements that contain Flash. Don’t worry – when Apple changes its mind the Flash elements will automatically become visible. You will be able to play YouTube video clips, though (of which we have a number on the site).
We’d love to get your feedback on your user experiences, so get in touch via the Contact form in the top menu.
Don’t forget to add SimplyDV to your iPhone’s bookmarks, too!
Enjoy!

Note: Tweaks to the iPhone app are being made daily, I understand, so keep playing! There’s a problem with the RSS reader at the moment (it keeps displaying the feed’s text rather than proper page formatting) but that should hopefully be resolved.

David, I’m limiting display to certain components of the site at the moment, and I’m being careful with commenting via iPhone because of the spam risks. I’m exploring different options as I get time.

Other touchscreen smartphones besides the iPhone? Huh? Such things do not exist. Begone with your tomfoolery, jape no more with your jesterness!
