The only issue I have with using SSL is links don't point to it. Such as, when I read new posts via /unread it puts me right back into http instead of the SSL. It may be different on a non-mobile device, but I keep getting put back into http.
In any since, SSL is great. I hope v2 will have out of the box SSL with all internal links and all. BTW v2 is looking epic (slight peve on the navigation boarder though, it is wrong with the diode rectifier lol, plus the ceramic capacitor will block ground or vcc, but tis okay), can't wait till the official release.
