I discovered that cyberoro (cyberoro and wbaduk both connect to the same servers) has its own free android client. But it has two downsides: the interface is localized only into korean; and as you probably know, you have to be Korean to register on cyberoro. But you can still login as a guest (it is the first button under the login field).
I didn´t find a way to specify login server, it puts you to first not full one. (confirmed Korea 2 and International or something) After connecting you are presented with nine buttons: currently played games, list of online players, chat, high dan broadcasted games (names are in roman letters), news, saved kifus, list of tournament games or something, tsumegos (which sadly throw some errors at me) and settings.
When watching a game you can try alternative positions, look at SE or look at earlier position. When putting a stone down, you basically double tap, after first tap the screen zooms to local position and the second tap confirms placing the stone.
I tried the app on a tablet and it looks fine, although it crashed once when I was browsing online players.

Re: cyberoro android client
I've been using the Japanese wbaduk client which also works well. It's a shame they haven't released an English one yet.

Re: cyberoro android client
I don't think you need to be Korean to register on Cyberoro... I've been playing on it for some time. I'd be surprised if my account didn't work on that, I'll try it out and see...
Tactics yes, Tact no...

I think once wbaduk was released some requirements changed for Cyberoro.

Re: cyberoro android client
"WBaduk" app is cyberoro client for "westerners" and "Cybreoro" is for korean players. If you want to have cyberoro accout you need to write to cyberoro admin to create one for you.
At this moment "Wbaduk"app is for iOS only but this should change in a few months.
