Here's another vote for tapatalk! I use these forums all the time from my android, and all my other frequent sites support the app...integrating all my forums in a single app isthe huge benefit for me.

If it helps, I'd like to see Tapatalk intergration as well (Yes, I know what FT has said, but I still wish for it).

I've heard rumors that vBulletin is about to launch a native app. My understanding is that they are going to release droid and iPhone apps simultaneously....

I also think it would be great to have tapatalk support. It is basically impossible to post to FlyerTalk from my Palm Pre.

I would also like to encourage Tapatalk access.

The Tapatalk information suggests that it may be as easy as just enabling Tapatalk from the whatever program flyertalk is using. I'm not a forum nerd kind of guy, but I am a slight computer nerd, so I understand permissions and access control for the database. It seems Tapatalk addresses these issues, and I would really like to see Flyertalk on it...

mobile.flyertalk.com is all very well, but so far as I can see I can't get to the country forums from it...

Can't say I'm surprised that business interests preclude enabling support, but consider this another vote for Tapatalk or something similar for mobile device access.

Great. There's 25% of the smartphone market. Glad to see the majority of the market was well served.

Indeed. Though the PDA version of the forum would do - if it worked properly! You can't view the hierarchical bits of the forum on it (e.g. The World->UK & Ireland), only the top-level forums. That makes it useless to me.
