Hey everyone, I did a search for this but came up empty handed, but anyway is there any kind of software like maybe a mobile version of GRlevel3 or something that I can use as a temp till I get my laptop replaced? I have the 8925/Tilt and love the thing. It had a program that I had to have a subscription for called My Cast, but I found it kind of cheesey and lame. If there is any programs that you guys can recommend, I am all ears. Thanks.

It's not GR3, but it's what I use on my PDA to get radar data.

Check it out...it's the 4th one down I believe. "RADAR WATCH"

I know Swift Wx has a mobile version: http://www.swiftmobileweather.com/features.aspx

For a while I used my Treo Smartphone in lieu of a laptop for chasing and simply made up some mobile formatted web-pages and ran them from my web server. Although not as good as something like GRlevel3 I had access to reasonably current radar images, satellite, models, soundings etc., although it was for my local/chase area. Jeff Snyder had a site set up that had pretty good coverage for Chase Alley, will have to see what the current status is on that.

In the end I still prefer my laptop, but as a backup it's good to be able to use a smartphone/PDA/whatever.

[EDIT]: I see Jeff has placed updated info on his WAP site in another thread: http://www.stormtrack.org/forum/showthread.php?t=15755

I find that weathertap has the best and quickest loading pages on my ATT Tilt
