            Bug ID: 62075
           Summary: Kindle 3: search for non-existing article lands on
                    broken desktop version of results page
           Product: MobileFrontend
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized

On Kindle 3 (Kindle Keyboard) running software version Kindle 3.4, go to
Home/Menu/Search and search Wikipedia for a non-existing article, say
"Georgias". You end up on the desktop version of the search results page

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/search.php?Georgias

which is spectacularly unsuited for the Kindle:

1)If you use the search box in the upper right on that page and enter some
characters, a list of search completions is displayed; this list vanishes
immediately, and your entered text is selected. If you now continue typing, the
text entered earlier is overwritten. 

2)If you use the main search box on that page, a list of search completions is
also displayed. While this list does not immediately vanish, it will do so if
you try to select one of its entries.
