    New feature for Smartphone users (iPhone/iPod, Android...)

    Hi all.
    I've just installed (available for all users) Tapatalk on the Mk1 Club forum. Tapatalk is a mobile forum app for iPhone / Android (and soon to be available on Blackberry and Nokia).
    Tapatalk supports all the usual forum functions plus full screen image viewing, image upload, caching (less reload), private messaging, all these features are accessible in just a few simple taps.
    Tapatalk is a much easier way to browse the forum than using Safari or Android's built in browser. It also uses less bandwidth, and is better formatted for the smaller screen (so you don't need to pinch to zoom in and out on the iPhone for example).
    I've tested it on an iPod Touch (running OS 3.1.3) and it runs fine on there too with a wireless connection.

    There's two versions of Tapatalk available. A read-only version which is free (so you can try it) and a fully-functional version for £1.79 (at time of writing). Well worth it in my opinion, if you browse forums on your iPhone/Android phone...

    Install the App on your device (available on the App Store on iPhone/iPod or via their website:
    http://www.tapatalk.com ) and do a search for MR2 Mk1. At time of writing, this forum is the only search result...

    If you use it, please let me know how you get on!

    Pat have you forgot you are old
    When the spirits are low, when the day appears dark, when work becomes monotonous, when hope hardly seems worth having, just get in your MR2 and go out for a spin down the road, without thought on anything but the drive you are taking."

    Just to let you all know, this is now available for Nokia smartphones and Blackberries too (although in Beta at the moment on Blackberries). For Nokias, it's now free on the Ovi store, or here:
    http://www.tapatalk.com/nokia/tapatalk.dm

    The Blackberry version can be downloaded for free here:

    Also, the version on iPhone/iPod will be updated in the next few days and will finally include landscape mode. Woo!

    Can't find the lite version in Android Market, and refuse to part with pennies until I've tried it!

    It's £1.88 or thereabouts. You should buy it it's worthwhile.
