Things to note:

1.As of now if you are browsing from a mobile site and try to reach www.geekzone.co.nz then you will be redirected to m.geekzone.co.nz

2.If you are using a desktop browser and try to reach m.geekzone.co.nz then you will be redirected to www.geekzone.co.nz

3.Email notifications still come with www.geekzone.co.nz links. However if you hit a link to a forum post it will automatically redirect to the appropriate page

4.Posting on m.geekzone.co.nz automatically set Email Notification and Show Signature. There will be options for this later

5.At the bottom of all m.geekzone.co.nz pages there's a link to the main site. This is if for any reason you want to see the main site on your mobile device. This is valid for the session duration only.

6.At the bottom of all www.geekzone.co.nz pages there's a link to the mobile site. This is if you want to return to the mobile view at any time before the session ends.

7.The mobile site is intentionally not accessible from the desktop browser

8.There are more things planne. Before asking, check the list in our first post in this topic, and the other comments.

9.If you are using a mobile browser and can't see the mobile site, please forward a PM to me with the user agent string.

My bad - I wasn't excluding the 'poster' from the new post notifications, so you would have received a notification of your own reply when you posted. Should be fixed now.

Create another user for your mobile device with a diff sig?

That would make very confusing and bad for managing users...

Great that it auto-redirects!

Few things:
- it doesn't seem to keep the anchor reference so I have to guess what the link from the email was going to which post
- it would be better if "Login to post" returned to the referring page when logged in (just like the standard site does)

Replying on the iPod ain't bad!

Find me on Twitter!

I posted 1, 2 x 10^3 times!

I don't think that's a good idea personally

If you login in the frontpage there's an option to keep you logged in forever. I use that.

Interesting about the anchor. It's working on Internet Explorer Mobile and Opera Mobile for me...
