It works in Opera Mini, but not in Mobile IE. I suspect that IE in particular relies on the .gif extension to render GIF images correctly, rather than the MIME type. You could try adding &dummy=gif to the request, which appears not to upset the image server. Unfortuately the URL is rather long and it's not easy to test that fully myself in Mobile IE, but limited testing indicates that it will work. You may also want to consider that many phone screens aren't 300px wide.
