    Same question to you. What for?

    Load the website in your web browser on the iPhone.

    It is hardly user friendly though? You can't drag down free money saving email etc.
    Well you could use it in the same sense as the facebook app. Where it makes it clear and nice and user friendly to go on threads and reply and answer questions etc.
    Then from all the headings it can offer tips on the most up to date information etc.
    Also a user friendly way in which to access Martin's blog.
    Along with the email that is offer every week offering pretty much direct links from the iPhone or iPod Touch??
    Offer the latest news as the guardian does with it's app.
    Make like a money tester game for a bit of fun :p.
    The range of free tools on offer also.

    would that not involve entertaining the idea that an iPhone is in some way MSE and not an overpriced overhyped piece of @~#&!!# ....?

    iPod Touch around £150, second hand like £90 not really overpriced and you can still access the apps?

    So basically optimise the MSE website for use on mobile devices?

    WHY?! Haha :)

    What would it do that you can't do via the web browser and the website?
    They say it's genetic, they say he can't help it, they say you can catch it - but sometimes you're born with it

    Having a verison of the site optimised for mobile swould be mmore sensible as then it would work for any mobile phone browser.

    MSE could also add the tpatalk plugin to hte forum (if they haven't already) which makes vBulletin forums more friendly to mobiles. Then you would just need the tapatalk app on your phone which is availabel for iPhone, Android, Blackberry and Nokia.
    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die
