Great work Wayne! I hope this becomes more user friendly at some point.

Re your client app - some feedback:

1. Works well, though I've yet to try it with Prey
2. The header should be hidden - you don't need it for that site
3. I don't think the app should be fullscreen - not needed, and getting 
rid of the header will give you more space
4. Adding a spash screen will make it look more like an 'app', rather 
than the 'dreaded webapp'

Points 2, 3, & 4 are used in both the Facebook and OMG Ubuntu webapps 
I've made - take a look at the code to see what I've done. Haven't had 
time to update them however - they're currently using Ogra's alternative 
webapp container. Good, but there are now really good features with the 
standard webapp container that haven't been carried over. I'd continue 
using the webapp container (default) you've got, and carry over the 
changes above.

Thanks for persisting with this! Even if some people won't use it (or 
are morally opposed, for whatever reason), it's great to see more 
services coming to life. Keep up the great work,

Mitchell
