Wayne!! When do we get an iPhone App?

It would be nice to be able to browse the forums and upload pictures to posts and stuff. I think we need an app.

Here is an example of a forum that has its own app. Obviously some of that would be usesless to us but it would still be great fun.

I don't have an iPhone, so I wouldn't know for sure, but doesn't this handle some of what you're asking for?

Lower, left-hand corner of every forum/thread page...

Nah that just optimizes the webpage for view in Safari. Watch the vid I linked and you will understand. It is very much worth the 7mins it takes.

As Randy points out, Pelican already has a nice iPhone interface, IMO.

I get Pelican on my blackberry and utilize it all the time!

I'm sure the following isn't new info to all, but maybe new to some....

Here's how I get there:

When I receive an email from Pelican from a thread I've subscribed to I click the "thread located here" and my Blackberry browser (not the best) launches me right into the BBS forum.

From there I navigate the same as if I was on my laptop.

Helps to pass the time when waiting in-line at a store, kicking it at the beach etc.

Now yes, a desktop App. for the phone would be nice, but I always save a thread email and use that as my portal into the BBS

Hope this helps someone

Cheers

Why don't you just log in normally? Punch in your username, password, and "remember me". Bookmark OT. Next time you come back you're already logged in.

Using my BB, Opera browser, and the iPhone optimized setting, Pelican works pretty damn well.
