I haven’t tried it yet, but Andy Moore’s script for detecting mobile browsers looks very promising. The script detects mobile browsers and allows you to define behavior per device. For example, you can redirect iPhones to a specific URL, while allowing Androids and Blackberries to access the regular page. Or you might direct Androids, Blackberries, Opera Mini browsers, and more to specific pages of their own. The script is very flexible, allows you to define parameters for each device, and can be configured there on the website using the Function Generator, without your having to go hands-on with the code. It looks pretty brilliant to me, and could be very useful for any TTG iPhone Portfolio users.
The script is free for noncommercial sites, and costs $50 to be licensed for commercial/transactional sites. There’s no reason not to take the script for a test drive.

Hi,
Another way for checking whether a device is mobile or not can be found here:
http://www.moviladetection.com
The site has a free service called detectFree which enables easy mobile device detection.
The site has also a free http proxy which does detection and a lot more.
has anyone tryed handsetdetection.com? can anyone advise of other similar providers? I need analytics as much as anything else
