Thanks Ross - good to hear you have it working. That's a fair point  
about the pairing period, and I'll raise it with Annual Reviews.
All the best,

Charlie.

Charlie,
Thanks for posting. I had heard Chris Beckett of Atypon (the  
technology provider) describe the mechanism at the UKSG one day  
conference in November. Worked for me with no problems at all - which  
was a pleasant surprise!
Browse & search interface works well on my iPhone.
My only gripe would be: "It will also be paired with your  
institutional or personal subscriptions, granting you full-text access  
for a period of 30 days, after which you will need to re-pair your  
mobile device." I'd question whether busy folk will bother with a  
monthly re-pair?
Obviously I applaud the inclusion of mobile access in the COUNTER  
reports.
Cheers,
Ross
