The next version will have some tweaks to the mobile version. One of
them is in autodetection. I don't like my Xoom being auto detected as
mobile - especially since the 10 inch size renders web pages just
fine. Unfortunately all android devices are auto detected as mobile.
For the Xoom I'm just adding a quick hack:

<cfif not structKeyExists(session, "nomobile")
and not findNoCase("blackberry",cgi.http_user_agent)
and not findNoCase("xoom",cgi.http_user_agent)
and
etc...

If anyone here has an iPad2 - can you confirm you get auto pushed to
mobile - and can you confirm that the regular site works fine? If so -
send me the UA.

Also - if anyone has the 10 inch Tab - or another 10 inch tab -
please tell me your UA.

I figure we can keep pushing 7 inchers to mobile.

On your site?  Or is there a test site I can use?

When I go to your site on the iPad2 I do not get pushed to Mobile

My blog is WAY old. Don't test there. You can test news.blogcfc.com.
Even that is a bit rusty - but it is closer.

Ok - and you get pushed to mobile on news.blogcfc.com? If you switch
to normal, do you agree it's fine on the iPad? I know the iPad is kind
of a shit device, but... ;)

I do NOT get pushed to mobile on news.blogcfc.com, but I DO agree that the site looks fine on the 10" ipad2 screen without mobile.

Ok -so for iPad, I don't need to do anything.

Anyone else got a non-Xoom 10 incher?

I predict that Ray is about to ask for the User-Agent of the 10-inch Galaxy Tab

Wow, nothing obvious there. Android 3.1 is mainly tablet I know - but I know it's going out to phones too. Um. You're screwed Rob. ;)

The differentiation is Android 3.1 vs Android Mobile.

I was going to add 3.1 to the end of Android Mobile, I don't think Honeycomb is ever going on mobile devices only on tablets.

By the way,  the non-xoom problem, we launched a site for private consultations and prescriptions for that kind of problem recently. ;-)

You could check for "GT-P7"

The 7" Galaxy Tabs will be either GT-P1010 or GT-P1000 or SCH-I810

Of course, that may not be perfect or reliable into the future.
