Noticed two more things:
1. Whenever you click in a text box to reply in a thread, keyboard defaults to lowercase. This is also true if you “RETURN” down a line. iPhone natively will default to uppercase at the beginning of text, punctuation, and RETURN, so not sure why this is happening.
2. The site seems to refresh very frequently when you have a reply box open...if you’re typing a reply and view another browser tab (maybe for reference) for more than what seems like only a minute, your page is refreshed and your message is lost! Very frustrating!
I talked with our team last week about the potential to include some more information in the postbit area (the avatar/username section). Tech will see what can be done without adding more vertical space above the content area. tap targets and such do create some limitations as to what we can do without upsetting the almighty GOOG. I think we can likely reach some compromise.

That is a great catch re: the lack of auto capitalization in the editor. i will report this as a bug. Thank you!

The final issue you point out about the page reloading frequently is I think more than likely your device running out of RAM which forces the page load. Are you able to recover the auto-saved text when the page does reload?

cheers,
robb

No, the text does not recover. Is the forum taxing on hardware resources? I don't noticed this problem with other sites.

Thanks for all the great support, Robb! Really appreciate your enthusiasm.
