We can indeed confirm this on the iPad and Mac versions, much to our surprise.
:)

The request is going to en.m.wikipedia.org but somehow is getting back the
desktop view -- the HTTP request headers are:

GET /wiki/Eiffel%20Tower HTTP/1.1
Host: en.m.wikipedia.org
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_8) AppleWebKit/534.50
(KHTML, like Gecko)
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
Accept-Language: en-us
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
Connection: keep-alive

Aha, we think it's the use of spaces in the title -- the canonical hit should
be to /wiki/Eiffel_Tower (with underscore). It looks like MediaWiki's coming
back with the canonical-form redirect before the MobileFrontend system has a
chance to override the output -- and since it directs to the non-mobile URL,
you no longer get the mobile view.

We'll see if we can workaround...
