You can also create a new user, mobile_elusion, that is configured to have no nodelets. This setting will get preserved when you follow links. Then we could add a User Settings option to disable the masthead and top menu and you'd have what you need while probably requiring less work from the developers. (:

I had thought about that, but figured it would be more work. Guess I was wrong. I do have a mobile account that cuts out nodelets. One other feature I thought might be nice would be to configure which options you wanted to see on newest nodes, that would make a better download page because it doesn't contain the node text, so you're not downloading a node twice. But that could be even more work. Just some ideas, but I would like to see something happen to make downloading better. elusion :	[reply]

...and crazyinsomniac asks me to ask you to not hold your breath. (: Most new features are rather low on the list of priorities and the development process has not "found its stride" yet so even minor changes are more work to implement than you might expect. - tye (but my friends call me "Tye")	[reply]

I will make a version of each of the "interesting" parts of PM in a Palm-sized form-factor, and stick them on the Plucker website. It's much better than AvantGo for several reasons. If you haven't installed Plucker yet, you should check it out. Stay tuned!	[reply]
