Check out this thread (http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=12422).

And FYI - it's VERY difficult to make a forum work in a mobile format, because they're all built from the ground up for desktop monitors and resolutions. That being the case, I can't think of a single forum that looks good in anything but Thunderhawk.

What Fabrizio, Chris and Jason have done so far is amazing. And hopefully coming SOON! :wink:

Boston PocketPC.com has nice mobile forums. So does PDA Avenue, unfortunately, PDA Ave's are read only at the present time.

Perhaps they dont know how to convert user's posts into 'mobile' shape ? :wink:

It's being worked on, slowly but surely . . .

Nope, that's actually all done and in private beta test amongst the team. However, the mobile forums are being integrated into a package of cool features, and Fabrizio's tying it all into a major, very cool upgrade -- but it's gotten a lot more complicated to set up than you might initially think. Let me put it this way: I was in an IM conversation between Jason and Fabrizio a month ago about design decisions, and my head was spinning. These guys are hard-core perfectionists and really want to deliver the best product possible.

Oh, and don't worry -- we ping Jason and Fabrizio about it every so often, so they haven't forgotten. :lol:
