Digital Spy Forums & iPad ??
My netbook seems to be on the way out, and am thinking about replacing it with an iPad, I spend 95% of my time just browsing the web, and a large percentage of that time on digital spy forums
Safari on the iPad doesnt have any adblock feature so im wondering the ads are really intrusive? The Atomic Web browser has adblocking though, but does it work? |

I just use Safari, I don't find the ads that annoying and it helps DS pay for the upkeep of the forums.

Just tried Atomic and the Adblock feature works fine.

I know.. but some of the ads are incredibly intrusive and have at times even covered some of the buttons for navigating and using the forums.

The ads are relatively unobtrusive (although sometimes animated GIFs) on the iPad as it doesn't have Flash. They tend to be pretty small and have never noticed them obscuring any of the site, as you sometimes get with the full Flash ads.

Not an iPad I know, but my iPhone shows the DS mobile forums and the ads there are incredibly intrusive. Every page change on a thread brings up a full screen advert!
Does the iPad show the mobile or full site? |

I use iCab Mobile rather than Safari, although I used to use Atomic.
No issues with the site. |

Since last week digital spy automatically switches to the mobile version on my iPhone, but not on my iPad. Its really annoying. I can't see an option to keep it at the full version.
