[B It can't be done, FT is "created" by UBB each time someone visits it, what otoh could be done is that someone handbuilds a pocket version of FT once a day for Avantgo, Palm and other pocket viewers. I don't know how much interest there would be for it. I have done the same for several of the boards we host and I can assure you it's possible but that it takes quite a bit of work. I have been thinking about making a pocket version of FT, each time I log on using my laptop and cellphone I have to load quite a large homepage each time... Email me if it's something you'd like to test then maybe we can put it forward to FT's tech wizzards.[/B]</font>

Good ideas. Thanks for the explanation. (There are some sites that I can get to with the Palm VIIx browser but "regular" sites are tedious and slow, compared to those optimized for the Palm. And trying to access FT with one of the Palm browsers always fails with an error message). Yes, I'd like to participate in a test. I'll email you.
