Seriously. Why bother disabling desktop browsers? I've seen a number of mobile sites that render fine in any number of desktop browsers.
If you want to optimize layouts for particular browsers, you can turn your layout call into a method. You can then put user-agent detection there to render a particular layout customized for the particular browser or device. If you really want to do redirection, it may be possible to sneak that in there. I've never tried it myself, though.
