This site seems to render well on BlackBerry. Would appreciate input on how it renders on other mobile devices. I'm still a bit new to this whole mobile site development thing...

http://deliking.mobi/

Please view on mobile device; I already know it look ridiculous on a PC.

The client loves it, but he also has a BlackBerry. I want to make sure it doesn't look hideous on browsers and devices that I don't have access to.

Thanks,

Rich
 
Works find and looks nice on the Motorola Droid, in both orientations.

I thought the url was describing "De-Liking", not "Deli-King", when I first saw it, but that's not your issue. ;)

I presume you're going to automatically detect that the user is using a mobile browser when they go to http://www.deliking.us and automatically redirect them to the mobile site? I don't expect users to remember the mobile site name. Typically, the mobile site can also be found at m.<sitename>.*, by generally accepted convention.

Thanks Troy.

I have a redirect from http://m.deliking.us/ in place. Yahoo seems to prefer the .mobi TLD, and their mobile search seems more advanced to me than Google's; so I did it both ways.

I'm still struggling to find a way to dependably auto-redirect. See my other post today...

Thanks again,

Rich

Looks OK, on the iPhone and iPad. However, I would recommend that you do NOT redirect the iPad to the mobile site... It generally does much better with the full-blown sites.
 
Checked it out on the iPhone, and I didn't see any issues. Phone numbers brought up the "dial" dialogue box, and the map worked fine. Ship it.
 
Thanks for the input. I'm starting to like these mobile sites... quick, easy, and the money's not horrible.
