Making esmc.com more mobile-friendly, assistance requested

All,

I've decided to start creating alternate pages on the ESM website more suited to mobile devices.  However, I don't have a list of all the mobile UserAgents that exist.  For those of you who have handheld devices - if you would browse to http://www.esmc.com/misc/browser.html and post the results here in this thread (along with the brand and model of your handheld device), it would help greatly in developing these pages.  Also, if your device can display in both portrait and landscape, I would want the output from both orientations.  Thanks.

If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

If you are going to make some changes, consider Wordpress and this:  http://www.bravenewcode.com/store/plugins/wptouch-pro/

Interesting, I'll look into it.

In the mean time, I believe I have a default page working for all types of handhelds.

Woo!
I thought maybe my computer was screwing up, but now I see this has something to do with cell phones. Well I guess I’ll step back out of here because I don’t know anything about cell phones.  :-X ;D

Just out of curiosity I did a Google search on ESM and I got everything from “Electronic Surveillance Measures” to “European Sex Music”, but nothing about mobile phones. So what it this ESM?

For those with devices that can read QR code, please let me know what landing page you get when you scan this and if your device is properly identified.

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

From the QR tag it took me to

http://mobile.esmc.com/md/

says "Mobile edition for Blackberry coming soon!"

Which is correct -it was a Blackberry 9800

I'm with Tom on this one.

Step 1: Get Wordpress.
Step 2: Profit!

It appears to be only a $40 investment so it makes sense to go that route.
