Could the web browser on the unit allow visiting and positing here on this forum?

HarryT · 09-25-2010, 08:41 AM

Yes, it does.

tarke9891 · 09-25-2010, 09:31 AM

I know i have done it.

TheKindleWorm · 09-25-2010, 03:08 PM

Yes you can but it's a shame mobileread isn't a mobile site.

It is just about readable for me on my Kindle in a landscape setting. If it was a mobile site I'd be able to read and post much easier.

Forgive the somewhat obvious question, but if that's the case, why not use the mobile version of the site?

Thank you

I didn't even know that existed!!!

HarryT · 09-25-2010, 03:16 PM

Simply go to "www.mobileread.mobi" rather than "www.mobileread.com". Same old MobileRead but with a much simpler interface optimized for mobile devices. Try it!

I'm there, I'm on the login site, and the curser is clicking in the box, but it isn't accepting any letters....

Enlarging it to 150% makes for a good reading experience

Chris Edwards · 09-25-2010, 08:58 PM

I've had trouble logging in from the mobile site as well -- login form won't take any character input. The desktop version of the site works fine. I'm running 3.0.1.

desertgrandma · 09-25-2010, 11:46 PM

Anyone else tried logging in on the k3?

Post your results please!

Dwayne_Matheson · 09-25-2010, 11:55 PM

I could click into the box to login, but I could not type in the box so I could not login and post. The boards were readable though. This was through to www.mobileread.mobi and not the regular site.

desertgrandma · 09-26-2010, 12:10 AM

Have sent a message to Kindle support...will see what they say.

ThomasC · 09-26-2010, 02:41 AM

I have found a number of "mobile" sites load up great, but do not allow you to enter scripts in box. Hopefully Amazon will fix this soon!

TheKindleWorm · 09-26-2010, 03:11 AM

I'm on the 3.0.2 firmware and I can't log in via the Kindle - there are other websites which I cannot log in to either.
