    Thanks for all the suggestions and feedback on the app - keep them coming, we'd like to roll out new versions with added features in the future. A big part of that will be if the app is popular and the ads are working, so if you do like it, please leave us a nice review in the marketplace as it's the best way for people to find and discover the app and bit-tech content :)

    Always found this site to be very well designed and easy to use (minus your built in site search).
    This just doesn't keep up with those standards imo.

    I'd rather see better compatibility with the pulse app.

    Some good suggestions here. :thumb:

    I'd like to add a few;
    Image support - even if it hotlinks to a browser, cause at current it shows nothing useful.
    sideways keyboard - my droid 2 and I hate that I cant read what I am typing.
    Most recent posts option. I almost always exclusively browse fourms this way.
    Number of threads to show concurrently, a setting or preference would be nice to adjust this.

    I have the paid version and so far like it (would love it more with these minor issues fixed :D )

    Yeah adding an image and more text to your RSS feeds would be a big help and make it look much nicer in Pulse ;-)

    Hello all! I've created an official one-thread-to-rule them all to deal with the Android apps. It's here.

    Please post all feedback there.

    Also, v1.1 is out today - adds landscape support for forum posts, and features bug fixes :)
