I guess most. You only need to have access to the web so a simple phone with a screen can do it. No need for a fancy and pricy blackberry.
But dont be mislead, this crap is only a get a quote, place an order thing. Really a last resort backup.

You are right about the interface.Quote from Div_Arb:
If memory serves me correct, you cannot initiate a trade with IB mobile. Only close existing positions. IB does alot of things right, but their mobile interface is terrible.
But if my memory is good I did place some open orders 2 years ago. I felt like I was back in the days I was trading with 15 minutes Yahoo! delayed charts, lol.
It'll show you price and account balance, but you cant stay logged in you will go inactive, and have to relog in. It's a pain if you have the secure device. If your not trading, then i would recommend a bbry or iphone or phone with a advanced browser to keep track of the market. Unfortunately IB hasn't put much money into developing a Mobile trader as Etrade or TD Ameritrade.
