Anyone know of a scrabble available on both windows phone 7, and Android? I've found apps that are available for Android and iPhone.

I have been playing Words With Friends (scrabble) on the iPhone quite a bit lately, not only can you play it on multiple brands of phones, but you can also play it via Facebook and they are all synced together which makes it really convenient.

I've been hearing a lot about words with friends. I think this is the first time I've been the person with windows who can't play a game. Lol

No flash player on the HTC HD7, and the number of wp7 scrabble games is limited. I did find one that works on my phone, and is "supported" on Android and iOS, but it crashes on my buddies phone which is fairly new so im thinking they're a little behind on the Android version they support.

One of those words I would have never thought would be allowed is:

Aa

I guess it means some sort of lava flow though. Another one that works is:

Ar

For the letter "R". Bunch of weird ones.

lol

i had the scrabble official dictionary and there was like 5 pages of 2 letter words, the official list is just stupid but to win at these games you need a db list of words.

good fun tho lol

Tried Words By Post, it worked fine on my WP7 phone, but it crashed repeatedly on my friend's relatively new Android phone.

what a coincidence this post received a reply today. I just started playing words for friends today for the first time. Pretty good, even if i need to work on my vocabulary a bit.

Scrabble type games are a great way to increase your vocabulary!

Just out of curiosity, how many points does everyone average per-game? I average about 300 points.

Bearing in mind i've not really been playing scrabble games for...well, ever really. My average wasn't quite as high.

My concern isn't so much vocabulary, as i have a good vocabulary, it is more the choice of words i have when restricted to several letters. I was putting things in like "sex" and "hi" in a couple of my games.
