Problems with m.flyertalk.com
The m.flyertalk.com site has been up for a bit but it still does not have all the forums available. For example, none of the airline forums are available. Also, the "my FlyerTalk" page is not available. These issues render the site pretty darned useless. When will they be fixed. IB was made aware of these issues over a month ago.

There was a thread in which Randy announced the new mobile skin and asked for feedback. Is IB following that thread and working on the reported bugs/feature requests?
My biggest personal issues with it
-incomplete navigation (missing navigation to MyFlyerTalk, many sub-forums, etc.)
-no "quote" feature
-no "edit" feature
-no "go to first unread post" button
Missing those things has kept me from bothering to use it much, so I'm sure there are more bugs I don't know about. (The above four are from memory.)

We have every intention on fixing up the mobile skin as soon as we have an opportunity to.

Yes, we are following that thread. The only reason why these things have not been fixed is because we have had our attention directed elsewhere recently by a number of other issues.

A thread was created to solicit feedback, but you are correct that we don't think an announcement is appropriate until we think the product is bug-free.

I have a couple airline forums bookmarked on my blackberry, and when I went to them tonight, they came up in the mobile format, instead of the normal web version which I then have to zoom in on. Still no airline forums listed on the mobile homepage though.

I am unable to see all threads in the ua forum. I receive an xml warning in both blackberry browser, "Error encountered during xml parse: expecting a name" and Bolt Broswer, "this page contains the following errors: error on line 3 at column 1798 xmlParseEntityRef: no name
I would have posted in the main wap technical issues thread, but I couldn't find it.

When I click on Quick Links and My Threads it only shows that I am subscribed to 3 threads. When someones posts on those threads, I get an email to notify me, which is exactly what I want.
When I am on a different/new thread and I click on Subscribe to this Thread, it tells me that I am subscribed to 7 threads, but I only see 3 in the My Threads.
Why is this? I cannot remember the other threads I subscribed to and want to look at them again. How can I access them?
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
