<p>I use a PC and tablet with Android. The speed seems to be dependent on the processor, memory, etc. of each different device. My PC is about average. NOT a gaming PC. OTOH, my tablet is new and pretty dang fast. It's a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 edition). Great tablet IMO.</p>

<p>However, there is a HUGE difference in how I post replies on the different devices. When on my tablet I almost CAN'T type in a reply box like I am now. I have to type into a text file (.txt) then copy and paste it into a text box on this forum. I don't have to do that on other forums. I don't know why this is. It may be a setting in the tablet settings or something. What happens on my tablet is I type a character and it appears IN FRONT OF the blinking cursor. Then what I type after the first character is on the wrong side of the character. If I were to type my name on the PC it looks like this "Jack". On my tablet sometimes (not always) it would look like "ackJ". Don't know why this happens and what's more confusing is it doesn't happen all the time. So, when on my tablet I just automatically type replies (expecially long ones) in a txt file then copy the whole thing, open a text window in the forum and paste it there. This method is a bit of a pain but it works 100% of the time.</p> It works pretty well with Pu…tag:iknifecollector.com,2014-01-16:3181080:Comment:10540832014-01-16T02:36:53.239ZSteve Hannerhttps://iknifecollector.com/profile/HogHanner

<p>Correct on Dolphin, I looked at that too but lack of flash support a big issue. On my wish list for Puffin is an integrated spell checker. Yes I won a spelling bee in 5th Grade, but it has been a long time.</p>

Dolphin will not support flash. Also it doesn't show the upload bar in the discussions. Chrome shows the bar automatically on my tablet, but only when I request desktop view on the phone.<br />
