I (and probably many others) use the ITT forums as a 770 information repository (on and off my 770), and it would be nice to be able to, for example, quickly find that explanation of how to add root to the file browser.

You can search on a post-by-post basis in the Advanced Search page (near the bottom of the form, labeled "Show Results as".

That said, I agree that these forums are a little bit of a pain to navigate on the 770. Having to reload the page every time I go "Back" only magnifies the problem. Is there a setting in Opera to avoid this? Or on the ITT web server, perhaps?

Also, the site is always just a little bit wider than 800 pixels, so there is always a horizontal scroll bar, even in full-screen mode. ITT's isn't the only website that does that, too, so I don't know if it's ITT's fault or Opera's fault, but it's annoying.

But hey, sofa-surfing ITT on the 770 is better than nothing.
