Correct this problem only started showing up until the upgrade..
Oh not the bolt but the Storm the BB with the touch screen, I believe I heard somewhere that the browser was completely written for the Storm OS.

No problem. Thanks for reporting!

I'd like to add a request. I noticed there was a link (on the top level) to mark all posts read. But not one to mark the current forum read.

But beside that, this works awesome! (except this is rather draining on my power

)

Click "Forum tools" on top of the message list in the forum.

There is no forum tools on top of the message list in the mobile version

Alexander Turcic · 01-24-2009, 05:00 PM

We'll consider it for the next update.

Hey Alexander,

just a little feature request: I'm using my iPhone to access mobileread.mobi (no, I don't want an iPhone specific website, so you may read on

) and use a mobile RSS reader. It would be great to have the feeds at www.mobileread.mobi/feeds/xxx.xml link to mobileread.mobi threads instead of mobileread.com threads. Is that possible?

Absolutely. I will add it on the to-do list for the next update.

I've been using the Mobile website and like it quite a lot. I have two suggestions:

1. Include a link to the mobile website in a prominent position on the regular website...I didn't save the mobile website as a favorite right away so every time I wanted to use it I had to google for it. Having a link in a prominent position on the regular website will make it easier for me and others to find it and use it.

2. Many websites I surf to from my mobile device recognize the mobile device and automatically directs me to the mobile website even when I've entered the main website address in my mobile browser....could this also be done here?

Alexander Turcic · 04-23-2009, 08:51 AM

Hello Julie, thank you for your suggestions.

1. Yes, a prominent link is long overdue. Going to work on it asap.

2. We do have an automated redirect in place, but as it turned out, it was somewhat overzealous also redirecting users with certain non-mobile browsers. We will have to review the code and apply the necessary fixes before turning it on again.

Just logged in to the mobileread.mobi site from my iphone after a few weeks and noticed somthing's changed.

I'm no longer able to jump straight to the end of threads ( the little arrow that allowed that appears to be gone).

This a pain especially foe longer threads which are often dozens of pages long.

Has this been done on purpose, or is it a symptom of some other change.

I've noticed that only when I'm not logged in. Are you logged in?
