I agree. I just bought the app and it offers an inferior experience to icombinator from what I can see. This app doesn't have threading in the comments (you can't see who replied to what), it doesn't have the instapaper functionality, etc...

I expected an app to at least allow me to log in and post comments but it doesn't even do that. Which makes me ask what the point of having a native app even was.

Very cool. Thanks for the link!
