Does it matter that it is a one way street? Why would you want to change back on the IT?

i'm not sure about maemo.org, thats pretty much ok, but itt is really a funny creature in that it causes so many problems on the device its about. double-rendering of first page, links too small (try to tap on the "1234...last"-links within a forum thread without zoom), strange flash stuff that makes the browser crash until you find you have to turn flash off...
well, it still is a great site content-wise. and i heard there'll be a re-design.

Yes - the old catalog is/has been available to browse. As you note - the new one is not - but should be.

I missed the mobile version choices... sorry, but...
The problem with the Maemo site is that the orange search box (CSS) fills the top of the screen when you go into a section. If you're searching that might be ok (if the frickin' search feature was a bit smarter - look at the libraries, guys), but if you're just looking to see what's new, and what's changed, it's really annoying to scroll down two screens to get to anything interesting. Also, it's too heavy when it doesn't need to be. Can you say 'Craigslist'.
I must admit that I do find the ITT site very useful, but the black version is a bit odd on the IT. You can't see the text entry boxes for the search functionality, and the whole thing is a bit heavy.

If you want to get back to Dark from one of the other styles, use the link in the following thread:

Does anyone else find these two Web sites, dedicated to the Internet tablet devices, a screaming pain to use with those devices? Shouldn't both those sites be optimized for the devices they support, and/or shouldn't there be an optimized version.
