Why did it switch me to Mobile when I signed on? I'm on a desk top.

The new mobile version is a vast improvement on the full style when using my cell phone. One improvement would be an easier (or at least more direct) way to page through a thread's pages. Right now, you have to click on the gear icon and then click on a page number or a page forward button. I'd like the page forward/back buttons to be available without going to the gear menu. Other than that, I am really impressed.

Did you click link to switch to mobile style once to test it? It remembers your setting in a cookie, so once you have switched to mobile style it will always show mobile style until you click the link to switch back to desktop style.
Nope. It just switched a half a second after I logged on. I've made my choice so its staying on desktop mode but it glitched the first time. I'm broadcasting Ubuntu

You're broadcasting Ubuntu, so you're using Firefox as well right? Well, it should stay in desktop mode now that you chose it. Unless you delete your cookies.
Yep, FF. Yes, It's fine now that I've chosen.

It is very good but personally I truly suffer the absence of the View unanswered posts | View active topics section which I always check instead than opening all the sections and topics.

In the mobile site just click on the magnifying glass in the upper right. From there you can:
View your posts
View unanswered posts
View unread posts
View new posts
View active topics
Oh Excellent!
Then let me say you did a very good job,the new mobile version is awesome and very user and mobile friendly.

Being able to go directly to the "View active topics" section would be helpful, but I found the app in general enabled me to navigate much easier than before.
