With Tapatalk, you lose a little functionality (e.g. polls, signatures), but the meat of the forum is there and it's in a much more easily read format. You don't have to fiddle with shrinking/enlarging parts of the webpage so you can read it. It's analogous to having a "mobile version" of a website.

Here are some screenshots of Tapatalk from my iPhone:





ETA: For a tablet, Tapatalk might not be worth it since tablets are large enough to display full websites that are easy to read and navigate, but for a smartphone, Tapatalk is priceless, IMO.

Thanks for this thorough explanation. i think i'll crack down and spend the $3!

I downloaded the free version for my Blackberry. Someone please walk me through what to do next? Do I go to the browser?
