IIRC, it won't even open without an internet connection. Tried just a couple days ago.

Not sure. According to the market and their website I linked above it says it is available offline. I am going to try it out next week myself.

Well, I have it now just searching 'Flyertalk'.

I'm wondering when it was added to the store.

Haven't really played with it yet. Reviews?

Also, if you cannot see it on the market, probably it's not compatible with your device

One thing I noticed is that if I just minimize it instead of logging out, it retains my credentials and I do not have to login again the next time I want to use it. Also, the Forums button at the bottom of the main screen does not work for me, instead I go to Settings and choose Forums from there.

Overall is is a nice way to read FT when on the go!

The application needs a 'go to last post' feature. Certain threads can be over 1k pages long an it takes too long to scroll to the end.

Edit to add: and when i reply, take me to my post. Not the beginning of the thread.

And give me a way to refresh my subscribed list.

Am I not seeing something here? It seems to me that some very basic functions are missing.
