If you have a symbian phone you can download skyfire and watch games since it supports flash..

First of all thank you all for the feedback, it was very appreciated.

Regarding symbian phones, I know they support flash (or at least, skyfire does) but as far as I know the support is a little sloppy. So to be more specific, has anybody tried the site, including but not limited to the match viewer, with an s60-5th based phone like the nokia 5800 or 5230?

I just forgot symbian and maembo, wich also support it.

I'm not really a nokia-like user :P

I used skyfire on my windows mobile phone to watch the games.

I use to play bb using my mobile phone - Symbian 9.3 - since the very beginning of the game, since season 6.

I tried few browsers and now i'm writing using opera mini.

Opera mini. A browser that saves my traffic and money :)
+little traffic consuming. If the speed is not so big - it also means quicker surfing.
You can use it at every phone
-unable to watch the match
unable to use drop down menu
unable to set the draft preferences
unable to copy text(if the opera version is<5)

opera mobile.
A very nice browser.
+you can use drop down menu
you can copy the text
you can write exactly in the place you are going to, but not in a new window like in opera mini
multi-tabs
-you can't still watch the matches
it consumes more traffic and ram. It can be critical for old models. You need ram >100mb to use it with comfort. New phones lack this disadvantage for sure.

Skyfire
the only browser that can watch the match. Everything is ok, except:
-too many, so many traffic
too many free ram needed
still unable to use chat
there is no multi tabs. I mean there were not at the moment i tested. It was near 5-6 months ago.

Some more browsers, like ucweb(china) and others also exist, sure :) but they are not friendly with flash either.

All these browsers will work with 9.5. And there is also a standart browser, i don't know what it is like at 9.5.

*still hope that it will be possible to watch the match with my mobile phone before i change it to nexus one :)
to complete it - there should be an alternative to flash matchviewer.

Thank you and everybody else for your thorough answers!

I've found a message in the BB global spanish forum, however, from a guy who claims that the site, match viewer included, works perfectly on his nokia 5800 using skyfire (btw yes, there are new versions, you may want to give it a try).

So, I guess we have a winner here. S60v5 was already my favourite platform for my next phone, and now I'm even more convinced of my choice.

The problem of symbian platform is a low possibility of development. The future is with android for sure :)

get ready that skyfire will just eat your money and traffic and ram.

nokia booklet 3g is the reply...( ? )

Still it's not the forum of hi-tech discussing. Anyway, nokia booklet 3g is not a mobile phone :)

opera mobile.
A very nice browser.
+you can use drop down menu

are talking about opera 5?I have it but i cant open drop down menus :(
