Jacque,
GET and POST are perfectly supported on both iOS and Android. If you send them
to an LC server script (connected to the DB in localhost mode), you will no
more have to compose with any latency anymore.

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

Hmm. I thought you could still get URL blah blah on mobile and it would
work. In fact, though the functionality differs slightly, you can use the
load command on mobile too. Perhaps this would be useful? If you're using
