LoFi version of the forums?

Is there a lo-fi version of [H] like some forums, for viewing in low-bandwidth locations, like a cell phone/PDA?

You can get there by clicking the archive link at the bottom of the page

Isn't that a little ghetto tho? You don't get any of the ads on the site? >.>

Edit: never mind I didn't notice you cant post from it

Thanks Vertigo, visiting the sites just to read normally was raping my data allotment on my PDA And I didn't realize vBulletin called it an "archive", so I had no idea what I was looking for!

If you also then click on the "PDA" button on the top right it does other ...things...

Aah it reverses the creation order and shows the number of replies! Thanks a lot!

FYI the archives are not exactly a lo-fi version of the site. There are no new treads in the archives in fact the newest thread i saw in the video card section was from 2004.

I see now its all backwards newest threads are last, oldest first.

EDIT: if you click the PDA link in the top right corner it actually fixes it up and makes it display the newest first etc. Nice how did i miss martin X's post?!

For me it takes longer to load the archive pages then the normal forum.

Ditto- and that's trying it from a regular PC.

Cool, I just learned how to save my entire worklog in one click from the LoFi version. Nice!
