Version optimized for wireless?
Forgive if this has been discussed, but I'm accessing via a GPRS connection and the "SEARCH" function is a bit unwieldy when you going that way...
Which brings me to the point of my question/suggestion. Is there a version of Flyertalk that's optimized for (say) wireless access via a PDA-phone or similar device? I recently signed up for unlimited GPRS data via T-Mobile and so I've begun doing more wireless surfing while on travel.
Ideal capabilities to support my new habit would be reduced graphics, limited use of frames and bteer screen formatting. Is there such a feature on FT

No, there is not a version of Flyertalk that is optimized for PDAs or cell phones.
The software we use for FT simply does not have that capability and providing it would require extensive programming -- I believe that this would still be true of most of the software packeages that we're looking at for the eventual migration of FT to more modern software.
