I need to know if anyone have used the Droid X. (with Verizon)

If so, I need to know how does your phone work.

I tried the sample phone in the verizon store but it wouldn't
show my opponet full schedule. I wasn't sure if it was this phone only
or same problem with all of them.

on the iphone you have to use a two finger scroll (dont know if this is the technical term) to view pages like schedules on the team page popup.  I can't speak for the android, but it sounds similar to a problem I had on the iphone until theeyetest pointed out this feature to me.

I have a Motorola Droid I ... the javascript popups that WIS use for things like Game Results and recruiting actions do not work well with the browsers in Android.

WIS is not the only sites that have issues like this, but they certainly do have the issues.

I would not try to go through a full recruiting period with one of these phones ... the site is just not mobile friendly enough.

You can use the scroll button(s) to make the menus dropdown and access more than just the default menu links, but the issue really is that the popup pages do not fully show on the webkit browsers in Android 2.2.

I have tried with the standard Browser, XScope, Dolphin, Opera Mini, and Fennec (the Firefox beta for android) ... all with no real luck.

I love my smartphone and I use it to do many things in a pinch, but navigating the WIS website with it is not a pleasant experience.

I have the samsung omni2 which works good with the opera browser.

I also just found out that on the Droid X you can downloand the
opera mini 5 browser. It should work.

If anyone got a droid phone, try the opera mini 5 browser and let
me know how it work.

I would think the opera mini would work, since it works OK on the WII

just tried skyfire - works great, just not as fast as opera.

I use Opera on the HTC EVO (android) and WIS works fine.

And you can see all the play-by-plays and other popups completely?

I can see the main site and office page fine, but the popups don't work well for me.

Yes, I can see everything completely.
