For those of us who can't stop monitoring out PV all day long, here is the next in my series of how-to's

I could not find an Android app for my Galaxy s2 which is a shame but I came up with a really good workaround (would work on any smartphone) I thought I would share.

There is a Gadget to display PvOutput in igoogle, add this and put it as the first item on your home page.

Next open igoogle on your Android and set PvOutput to be always open at startup and make sure its at the top of the list.

Last of all put a shortcut to igoogle on your home page.

This is what you get and its really good.

Now you can monitor your production no matter where you are  extrahappy

huge kudos for the achievement,  genuflect  but that has to be just about the saddest thing I've read all day!  After all we're here to save the planet (aren't we?) and every 1,000,000,000,000 google searches boils another kettle's worth of CO2 or some such statistic. Just light-hearted banter ......

I just installed Opera on my Xperia Play and use that as my web browser.  Shows me PVOutput no problem at all.  Only downside is that PVOutput won't zoom in and out for some reason, so the graphs fill the screen and a little extra.
