It is horribly slow, jerky, and crushes my iPhone Safari native browser. Mind I practically do not have any applications installed on my phone, I do not play games, nothing, just literally a bare OS. No, sorry, I am not "getting a better phone".
When I use my desktop, this template impedes my browsing. if it impedes my browsing I get irritated. If I get irritated I am not in a buying mood anymore. As the result, as I said before, I will not be visiting the Home page. Sorry to all the ad providers - you guys lost a customer as the result of this upgrade (I bought several times before).
Sure it is all Dave's business and he is free to do what he wants, I am not going to dispute that. Still, I do not understand what was wrong with the original site.
