Well, not everyone's a power user
Unfortunately, there are lots of tips and tricks offered that turn out not to be tips or tricks at all. It seems that only little-known features should qualify, but I guess little-known features depend on the user.
However, AvantGo should put a disclaimer on that particular trick: You can load any page you choose, just so long as you're one of fewer than [enter today's quota] users who choose to load it...if you're not, too bad
