That's right. If you have an iphone or ipod touch you can pay some company 3.99 to get an app to make ford forums iphone friendly. It is a pitty for them I am typing this now on my iphone with no use of a specially designed app.

That'd be the one. Had my Nokia N95 mention it to me, but not going to buy it as 1) I can't and 2), have it on the wife's iPhone

I was given an free iPad as a promotional exercise. It was overpriced.

The Xoom etc. will be here soon which I suspect will attract all but the monocular iSheep away.

The Tap thing is really annoying, evertime I go to a new page I have to click cancal, I try not to use it on my iPod if I can help it because of that tap app.

So, no-one will drop it then as they are all monocular iSheep?

Just wait, Apple will start releasing white iPhones and so forth and then have another big sale on their hands

I have had no trouble on my IPhone 4 either, why would I need an app? Sounds like a waste of time and money to me.

Exactly. I'm quite happy with Safari.

I use safari on my I phone, laptop and PC, I find it a lot less annoying and more stable than Microsoft Internet explorer. In fact it is not hard to be more stable than anything that comes from microsoft. A big bonus with safari is it has a built in spell check, which incidentally does not recognise "microsoft", I wonder why that is?

Hmm, I was getting a bit confused as I was reading down this thread.
I go on AFF all the time from my iPhone 4 using Safari with no issues at all with excellent speed. What does this app do exactly?

Yep, me too, but I don't have the PC.

Mac only here.

I have no problems using Safari on my iPhone 4.

Tappatalk is crap. I used it for another site and it is no where near as good as a normal webpage.
