What’s great about the Nokia E61 is the full web browser. What’s bad about the browser is that it takes time to render full sites or Javascript causes a crash.
This is easy to fix on the web host: just autodetect mobile browsers using the User Agent string. If the User Agent is a mobile device, send down the “lite” version of the site and provide a link to the full site for completeness.
I was surprised today when I browsed to Starbucks.com and instantly came to a store locator page. That’s very smart of them and all retail establishments should do this.
