@Matthew: And the only 'tampering' Opera Mini does as far as styling is concerned is ignore background-image rules? Or does it not render images, full stop?

The launch of Apple's iPhone could also have a significant impact in this area too.

On the iPhone's site, I thought the Safari demo [www.apple.com/iphone/internet] was the least impressive thing. The fact that it's the most sophisticated (read: complex) hand-held browser is not necessarily good - for example, the browsing of the nytimes and fandango as demonstrated looked completely ineffectual.

Having said this, it should not be the browser manufacturer's job to customise their rendering process to magically make sites intuitively accessible on small devices - and if they do, it impinges on our ability to decide on what's best for the user.

Incidentally, screen-size-sensitive stylesheets are an excellent notion [http://alistapart.com/articles/switchymclayout].
