I went the other way and mostly use my ipad (interactive broker and etrade app), my phone (android, same brokers). It's mostly because i cannot trade at work anyways. So check the market conditions in the morning before and put in limit orders, which either execute or not. Sometime, I check the quotes on my phone and adjust my orders accordingly, but most of the time, I'll just let it ride. I did not find it makes that much difference to follow quotes tick by tick.

As E_K_S explained, I set alerts that sent an SMS to my phone when a predetermined price target is crossed or when a trade is executed.

Even when at home, I like the convenience of the ipad and use it as I type this in fact. I also have an Dell Ultrabook that I am using as well. I use my desktop (5 year old machine) maybe 10% of the time.
