Hi Bob

I too like my phone for keeping tabs on the market when my PC is down or when away from home. I made pages to check individual stocks when away from home that has a chart of after hours to see how they react to news that often comes when I drive to windsurf. I also have the markets summarized on a single page for a quick loading view at Charts.

Here are FNSR and GE where I have links to move inside the page to the after hours "intraday" trading for the stocks. If that would be useful to you and you'd use it, I'd be happy to add a couple of your favorite stocks if I don't already cover them. I'm also open to ideas to improve the page to make it load quicker or be more useful for away from home price checks.

The shopping Ap sounds useful. I still keep all my lists on paper next to my stove and fridge so I can add things as needed. I have favorite stores for different items so I have pages for each. For me, it is much quicker to use a pen to enter items to lists than to try and type on a tiny phone screen. Heck, I can enter the item quicker than it takes to boot up a phone screen or walk to where it is plugged in charging....

I chuckle at how technology works so hard to add more complexity to solve the problems a pen and pad work perfectly for.

have a great weekend!
