Sorry Reggie, but that kind of assumes I have the Main page bookmarked as my landing page, which it's not - I come direct to the forums, and from that point onwards my only option is to navigate to a menu and access an option that doesn't quite do what the old "New Posts" button did.

The new site has removed very useful functionality and the alternatives are either awkward to access or not direct replacements. I can now see how involved Nokia were in this re-design!

I can use the link to get an initial list of new posts (in fact, that's what my current bookmark already provides) however it's not then possible to easily re-generate a new list of "new posts" without having to use my bookmark - I tend to read new posts each in their own tab, and having read all articles I like to refresh the New Posts list, which I can only now do with my bookmark (which is in a Firefox bookmark folder etc.).

I'm beginning to see parallels between the removal of the New Posts button and the Bluetooth status icon!

On the whole I'm liking the new design - it's certainly "fresher" - but see no valid reason to drop the "New Posts" button...
