I like the layout of the new board. Has a cleaner look to it rather that the old.
A) the fact I can now choose the player to hear the radio station is a plus
B) I can find out what is plying on the system is nice.
C) The rating system is easier to understand and allows for plus and minus voting
D) Still trying to figure out the rep points factor, but I like the ability to toss off a reply directly to a post if I agree or disagree with comments

I concur. I am sure it will be awesome when it gets wrapped up.
One note, at the bottom of the thread where it reads << Previous Thread l Next Thread >> When you click next thread it goes to the previous thread and vice versa...
I also agree. Rep has single handedly brought lots of great friendly humor back to the alley. The competition bewteen members has been absolutely hysterical.

Yea, it has been a bit lighter around here lately!
I don't have a PDA to test it with, so when you've had a chance to play around with it - let me know what you think. It's off-the-shelf stuff, no mods until I can take a look for myself.
Suppose to have alot of features:
Dual Markup Engine: Switch between WAP 1.1 (WML markup) and TRUE WAP 2.0* (XHTML MP markup) WiStyles on the fly!.
WiForums will also monitor a user’s phone browser capability; if a member selects XHTML MP markup in MyPrefs, and then switches to a WML only phone, WiForums will then change his/her markup preferences to WML on the fly, ensuring a trouble free browsing experience.
XHTML-MP markup with compliant content-type that invokes a browser's quick XML parser.
Automated Device Compatibility Updates (ADCU): WiForums installations will periodically query our server for any new device compatibility updates, and when necessary, update themselves to ensure that all WML and XHTML-MP compliant devices can access your wireless forum.
Quick Replies: An inline "Quick Reply" form which is displayed in xHTML MP WiStyles whenever a member is reading a PM, or viewing a topic.
Implements PURE WCSS: Not a single table is used; however with the use of key bandwidth efficient XHTML-MP/WAP 2.0 elements, the default XHTML MP WiStyle has the appearance of your typical eye catching PC forum.
Intuitive "Displayable on Demand" Menu System: Every menu link in any XHTML WiStyle implements the accesskey attribute. Keying in '0' will always bring you to the menu (displayed at the bottom of the page). Keying in '9' will always bring you to the top of the page (where you can access the navigation links).
WiContacts: Is a 'buddy list' which is populated with the names and online status of a forum member's wireless private message recipients, allowing a member to quickly send them private messages.
Mass PM deletion: Wireless forum members can delete all of their inbox and sent private messages in one tap.
WiForums PIE AHM - MS Pocket PC Edition & MS SmartPhone Edition: These WM applications can be used to ensure that Pocket IE is compatible with WiForums FF v3.
My Menu: Using My Menu, a wireless user can add a menu item to the forum wide menu system
WiChat: Allows your members to have live instant messenger like group chat sessions with smilies. Among other things, members can send WiChat invitations to other forum members requesting them to join the chat.
Top 10 WiPosters: Wireless forum users will be able to view the forum's Top 10 Wireless Posters and their respective wireless post counts.
Member Profiles: Wireless forum users will be able to view a member's:
Email based SMS PM Notifications.
Wireless Member Registrations: Guests can register on your WiForums discussion forum and also have access to your forum
Search Capabilities: A global 'Search' option is located in the forum's main menu and a 'Search Forum' menu option is present in every forum that a user enters which contains a list of topics.
My Forums: Allows a user to quickly access their WiForums and vBulletin/phpBB2/IPB subscribed (watched) forums.
My Forums also allows users to subscribe and unsubscribe from forums.
My Topics: Allows a user to quickly access their WiForums and vBulletin/phpBB2/IPB subscribed (watched) topics.
My Topics also allows users to subscribe and unsubscribe from topics.
"Automatic Quoting": Appends a post to your reply ( a "[quote]" link is displayed below each post).
Check Who's online
Send Personal Messages to other forum members. Just as effective as SMS (with smilie support)
Receive Personal Messages
My Prefs: A user specific control panel that allows your users to do the following:
- Select their preferred markup (WML/WAP 1.1+ or XHTML MP/WAP 2.0)
- Select which WiStyle they would like to use.
- Enable or disable external image support (JPEGs, GIFs, PNGs, color smilies etc..)
- Enable or disable the truncation feature
- Configure SMS PM notifications
- Control how many topics, posts, and search results are to be displayed on a single page
- Specify the the name of their cellular phone, PDA, or other WAP enabled device, and it will be appended to the "Wirelessly Posted" line.
Support for vB3’s "ignore" lists when viewing a topic.
Wireless posts can be edited wirelessly
A unified (forum wide) on screen navigation system which greatly reduces the need for multiple presses of the “back” key, which in turn speeds up access to previously viewed pages.
An imageless WAP 1.x WiStyle for the minimalist WAP user
Non WML 1.x or XHTML-MP 1.0 compliant browsers will be redirected to a web page of your choice
