I found something to like about this enhancement .... it seems that reading a thread on the handheld doesn't mark the thread as Read. This is GOOD (for me at least), as sometimes there are just too many updates to actually read them all and I'd prefer seeing the thread again when I'm on the PC (as a reminder for me that I didn't read the updates). Also, time outs and distractions with the handheld, as well as loss of signal, is a very frequent occurrence and big deal. Just bringing up the list on the mobile used to cause the My FT list to empty itself for the PC as though I'd read all the updates, when I hadn't even started.
