Just so you guys know, I've had several people with a variety of different services and devices, both pocketpc and palm, test the site for me. So far, no one has complained about it not appearing correctly. Regardless of their provider or viewing mode. (desktop, landscape, default, smaller res screen, larger res screen, etc).
Don't know how relevant this info is, but I thought id share it. :) cheers, - Tye --- In treo@yahoogroups.com, Craig Froehle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It appears that T-Mobile's proxy web server does *not* reformat > anything.

I had to manually set the proxy to T-Mobile's server and it took me a while to find it. It was mentioned on some of T-Mobile's support pages, but not others. Wait, now that I think of it, I think I remember them saying that it was not being used anymore because basically all web traffic was being proxied by default, so I think you may be right here! But I wonder if you could simply avoid this by using a third-party proxy server that doesn't actually do any of that reformatting. Then again, this wouldn't give you a real picture of what most T-Mobile customers are seeing... > > > > Levi Wallach > > > > Blog: twelveblackcodemonkeys.com > > DVD Review Site: dvdmon.com > > Pictures at: http://wallachexpressions.smugmug.com/Photos%20by% 20Levi > > > > From: Craig Froehle > > Sent: Wed 2/9/05 10:29 AM > > To: treo@yahoogroups.com > > Subject: Re: [Treo] Re: Can only Treo 600s and 650s browse the web? > > > > Hmm...well, with T-Mobile, I don't see a way to *not* use their proxy, > > so in my case, I *am* forced to get stuff through a proxy server. > > Whether or not it does reformatting is beyond me, but I do know that > > once upon a time, maybe back when Handspring was still around, they > > were the proxy server for Blazer -- the browser was set up for all > > traffic to go through them so they could reformat the pages on the > > fly.
