Now at the top of the forum, you can toggle "mobile mode".

From my Blackberry I not surprisingly see things differently. The mobile mode in column view is 10x more usable for me.

I have also put in a style for quoted text. Is there anything else that needs adding to the mobile view? bearing in mind it is meant to be minimal.

Cheers.
I couldn't see "edit" when I was on earlier...

The date no longer links, but there should be a little icon that does.

Some more tweaks are in, so I'd be curious if the people who had found the full mode better still have problems with the mobile mode?

I prefer the longer links as very small icons can be difficult to press on the iphone just because they are smaller than my fingers

I can't think of any links that have been made shorter I guess the latest/last post icons are a problem though? I doubt a mobile mode will ever be one size fits all. e.g. the blackberry has a small screen and an accurate trackball, small links are therefore idea for it.

No certainly, it might be nice to give people an option to get out of the mobile mode if they don't like it.

Any touch screen phone will have issues with links being smaller than finger size
