Wow! Is a response I've made several times about this new version of j. Marvelous that such a powerful application is so compact. Since I couldn't resist, one of the first expressions I entered on my iPhone 4 (not the faster 4s) was - 6!:2 '%. 500 500 ?@$ 1000' 18.2 Amazing! The graphs

I echo Bob's remarks - adding WOW! Nice job. To be fair, I didn't expect to be as impressed with the local help as I am after trying it. Having Henry's JforCers is really nice for new users. It would be lovely to have an entry document oriented to this new environment, and now the foundations

I agree with John, looks very good on iPhone4. I downloaded help on my iPhone and it is good to have there, even if it is a bit tedious to use. I think useability can be addressed after some wider feedback. My results with swiping are still erratic and sometimes confusing - and I've been used
