Although systems like WURFL use the user agent to identify mobile devices and their capabilities, it's actually an identifier of the browser, not the device. Your PC may be a Mac, or a Windows box running on an AMD, Intel 486 or i7 - the user agent isn't going to reveal a lot about this - perhaps the OS and a rough indicator of the age of the PC. It will tell you whether it's IE, Firefox, Chrome etc.
If you're writing your own HTTP client then it's up to you to create your own user agent to provide your server with any application- specific it needs (Android/iPhone, version number...). You might want to add some of the fields from http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.html. Screen size is something you can also code into your user agent. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
