  • Main message index also has columns on the right, making the subject areas quite narrow
  • Signature space dwarfs the poster info bar
  • There are two lines below the posts which don't look right if nobody has liked that particular post

Hmm, I need to try Wireless some more, then, hadn't noticed this so much.

Mind you, are you trying to use Wireless on a desktop browser, or on a real mobile device?

Desktop browser, actually. I can borrow my mom's iPod and try on there...

Yeah, desktop browser it's going to look odd however you spin it, best to try it on a real mobile-sized platform. I have to admit I've been pretty lax about trying it on either a 4th gen iPod (as that's what I have) or a first-gen iPad (though I never had a problem with the desktop version there)

A pretty cool way to test for mobile is with the Opera Mobile Emulator. You can test for many different screen sizes and input devices:


For example, Nokia N9:

Norodo: But does it work? Meaning, does it behave like it advertises?

Pete: I'll get it later.. It's second gen.

Well, as far as I can see, it sure does. No discrepancy between the emulator, and my mobile, which is an E7. (This is, when I set the emulator to have the right resolution, something that is easily done in the menu.)

Even the UI behaves eerily similarly.
