Are these features included (or available as mods)?

I attempted to search the forums for this, but unfortunately I don't know the right phrase to search for, so I might have missed it.

Anyway, I'm currently running Invision 1.3 on my forums because phpbb2 isn't feature rich enough to convert to. However, I downloaded and tested out SMF on my server and am very, very happy with it. However, there are two things that I am in desperate need of if I'm going to convert (they're mods for Invision so I don't know if they're included in SMF or mods for SMF or what):

- Is there a way for posts from a specific forum to be put on a site with a "comments" section that shows the amount of replies? (I'm not talking about an RSS feed, just a php script that does so).

- Is there a lo-fi version of smf so that search engines pick it up more quickly?

Thanks!

Google (like other search engines) is typically happy to index even none "lo-fi" versions of pages in SMF, because of the format of URLs.  If you're still worried, there's even "search engine friendly URLs".

However, for wireless users (of cellphones, pdas, pocket pcs, etc.) there is a special interface:
