Please excuse that last auto"corrected" reply!

As I was saying, I use iGopher by Exebeche written in 2011. It's good but I'd like to try other similar apps.

I originally picked it up for my first gen iPad; I?ve updated my iPad since then and it?s gone through a couple updates of its own, so I don?t know if the current version still supports the original iPad. Browsing now though it no longer seems to be available in the store in the U.S., either, so I?d guess that Richard Smith is no longer an iOS developer.

I may be able to get GopherBrowse back on the app-store via my work account, so long as I can get agreement. As for the code, I could open-source it.
