Mobile Testing and Rational Functional Tester - what's an easy plug-in to use?

We have started to use Rational Functional Tester here and I'm looking for a recommendation on a very easy plug-in to use to test mobile devices with Rational Functional Tester.   Any recommendations?  Found SeeTest - has anyone used this?  Pros /Cons?   Any plug-in you didn't like?  

Thanks much!

Hi Michelle,

RFT is not the best tool to use for Mobile Testing. You should use instead Rational Test Workbench. RFT is included in Rational Test Workbench. For more information about RTW see
http://www-03.ibm.com/software/products/en/rtw

RTW contains a module for explicitly testing mobile applications. You can find a description of how it works in this article:

For Android applications this YouTube video from Rational demonstrates how it works

Will this work with existing test scripts we have all ready written in the RQM side and then automated on the RFT side.   Would hate to do additional rework.
