Any news on an app for the ipad yet?

I would really like to be able to play on my spanking new ipad but don't want to clutter it up by trying apps that may not work.  Also, I don't see much point in using "logmein" as you still have to have a pc running (although I'm sure that as an app, it is very good).  I see ipads being used on Sky Poker TV and am interested to know which app is used.

Onwards and upwards...

    Does it? I've got one but didn't think it would work because of flash player not being able to download....
    To be honest, i'd rather NOT have poker at my beck and call!!!

    Yes, you're right.  I can log in but the table does not load.

     Oh well, back to the drawing board.

    Morning Mr Gosh.

    The i-pads we use on Ch 865 are NOT to play poker on the site, they serve 2 functions, namely.....

    1) So we can read Forum Posts & threads whilst in the Studio.

    2) We have a special app that serves as the "clicker" when analysing & commentating upon the hands. We can talk & click to suit the hand, or commentary, via that i-Pad "clicker". We used to have a little clicker rather like a modern car key clicker, but we've gone all posh now.

    An app to facilitate playing on Sky Poker via an i-Pad is under development & is coming along nicely. As some have stated, there are variuous means by which it can be done now, but the real thing will be along soon enough.

    I have tried this and it works.

    Not ideal for more than one table but if you are playing an mtt it is fine. 

    I've even 5 tabled using 4 on my laptop and one on the iPad. (sad I know!)

    Thank you all.  I have now done this.

    Good morning Tikay

    Thanks for the info and news.

    I am in reality a "Mrs" but not offended at your assumption.  Are you wary/cautious of my aka?  In my world it is merely a term of surprise or shock.  I sincerely hope that know one is offended.

    I very much enjoy all aspects of the Sky Poker world and am grateful for all the free tutelage on offer.  I think my game has improved greatly since joining in January this year.  Keep up the good work.

    Best wishes

    Joyce
