You can clear the website data for just *delta.com instead of clearing out all browser cache. Method varies by web browser.

In Chrome you can create a bookmark to clear the cache for any specific website. It’s pretty handy.

Thanks, I didn't know that.

Promise I'm not picking on you Han. The above example of not realizing you can simply delete just the [MENTION=31476]delta[/MENTION].com cache, is a perfect metaphor for what I often see with guys who have "major" issues with Navblue. Often I find guys complaining that it doesn't do X...then I show them that it does in fact do X.

That said, I still have issues with it that I would to see addressed. Some have already been fixed and I assume most of the others will be fixed relatively soon.

When will it be as user-friendly as EZBid? I realize that program/app has some modeling issues but it really is an easy "point and click" app with an intuitive display.

Can you use EZBid on a cell phone or tablet?

About the time I can use EZBid on my Mac w/o bootcamp or windows. That's actually one of the requests I've pushed up to the PBS guys. I'd like the trips to overlay a calendar then allow me to simply click them to add to my bid. I've never used EZBid because I've found it easy to knock out my 2-3 bid groups in no time with both the old UI and the webapp.

I get what I bid and so far I have not been burned. I don't use it offline or with the surface. I use my MacBook.

Surface? What's that?

It would be really nice if Nav Blew bought out EZBid with the intent to keep the intuitive (and simple) EZBid interface and merely fix a few of the more intricate modeling shortfalls that EZBid has.

Not gonna happen but a guy can dream. 😁
Didn't we have a great interface for booking JS/non-rev as an alternative to myidtravel that was forced to cease a while back? Isn't myidtravel from the same stock pen as NavBlew? (i.e. errbus?)

On the flip side, you'll never get caught on you pr0n addiction the first part of every month!
