How do I add a forum to my app

I would like to add an online forum page to my buzztouch 1.4 app. The principle would be that end users could interact with me and other users to share idea's etc. Is there any good, free (or cheap) forum websites that are mobile friendly and could be easily added as a custom URL page on buzztouch. Thanks in advance.

I've been thinking about a forum for one of my apps. It's a good call for phpbb, but it didn't feel quite right to me. My idea - which I haven't implemented yet - is a facebook fan page. I know there's no real forum structure, but as far as user interaction, promotion and potential virality/popularity goes, I think it would take some beating.

from my experience forums are not very fun to use as a mobile experience, especially registering/login ect. I would look into a simple comments form built in html and then integrated into iwebkit if user interaction is what you are looking for :)
