I found an old thread from 2008 where someone asked about viewing the forums on mobile devices. As vbulletin do a mobile CSS for forums, it would be great to have this option. Do many people view the forums on mobile devices?
 
Lol at all the iPhone replies - I posted the original post from my iPhone. It's perfectly useable but having to zoom to hit buttons is a pain. Also the pages take quite a while to load, even on wifi. Having used other forums that support a mobile specific css, they are much more pleasant to use, especially over 3g.
 
Quick question possibly slightly O/T, I know that by swiping the top of the browser one can return to the top of the page (on iPhone), is there an equivalent or similar to this for a quick scroll to the bottom of a given page?

There's not unfortunately, which is annoying when viewing a previously visited thread as you have to swipe your way to the bottom.

Maybe in a future version of safari..
 
Dolphin on my Magic, works fine, pinch to zoom in/out :D

Don't you think it would be nicer to just be able to read posts without zooming in and out? As the forums are basically just text with the occasionaly graphic posted, they could easily be formatted for a small screen with bigger text.

Vbulletin do a css for this which is used on many other forums - I think it would be a welcome addition here.
