All the little things that may have fairly limited use, e.g. the mobile versions, import facilities, etc in sum provide an environment that makes initial users more likely to choose Subsurface or to stick to it. These are the sort of thing that add a lot of value and, for instance, have made DAN Europe turn to Subsurface for many of their import requirements and initial assessment requirements.

Yes, I agree. As you saw, I looked into it, but stopped when things crashed for me.

My personal view is that any time spent on the mobile versions is a long term investment.

That is what I'm telling myself (except that there already are 8core phones out there, as are tablets with 2560x1600 screen resolution)
