    Anyone know a good way to view toucharcade on the iPhone? Using safari is annoying because you have to keep zooming in on each page. Tapatalk is a vbulletin reader for the iPhone but the forum admin has to install a plugin for it to work. Any easier way to view toucharcade then safari?
    Thanks in advance.

    As of now, I think only Safari will work. I think thats why so many people have requested a TA app

    Ugh. Well I guess I will have to stick with safari. I would love a TA app though and would pay $1.99 for it.

    The tapatalk plugin wouldn't b hard. Just install a plugin and get into the tapatalk directory. Seems easy on the admins. Tapatalk is a app I discovered that is made as a iPhone friendly version for vbulletin forums.

    Pretty sure they already know about the demand for a TA app by now. There have been many threads about it and the admins even replied that they might consider either having an app or optimizing the mobile site itself. Hopefully we`ll find out soon :)

    Personally I think the best way to view TA on the iPhone is while on the crapper...but that's just me...helps to pass the time...:p

    See, the idea behind people using it on the toilet to me jars with the whole clean Apple aesthetic. I don't do anything on the toilet apart from work to get out of there as soon as possible - it's like a form of jail for me, I find it annoying. And it's not like Apple have an edition with "those kinds" of colouring. ;)

    The bet way to view TA is with your eyeballs. Isn't it obvious?

    With the latest iDevices, it's very easy and fast to view the website on safari, not sure on the first generation ones.

    Some of us don't have eyes, we have eyephones and eyepods.

    The best way, I think, it with the app Jaadu VNC. I use it to remotely view the screen of my home MacBook, which has its iSight camera pointed at TouchArcade on my iMac. Seems to work well.

    Agreed -- it would be fitting that the site that reviews apps would be available in app form. I, too, would be willing to pay -- hopefully it'll happen!
