Device description Nirvana
But what if there were a simple way for any Web developer to gain access to basic information about the devices hitting their site. What if they could use this information in a straight forward way in their templates (JSPs, ASPs, PHP, etc…) or other server-side logic for the purpose of more easily providing a mobile-friendly user experience in accordance. And what if this information were available as a utility – as transparent and ubiquitous as DNS or HTTP headers and integrated seamlessly into all the most used Web development frameworks and Web servers.
Sounds like the mobapi.com initiative I am working on my spare time (not much left :-)
