Hello all.

Is it permissible, per dotmobi's rules, to build a .mobi site which detects whether a viewer is viewing the website from a mobile or pc browser and, based upon such detetection, displays either a mobile version of the site or a pc (larger) version of the site?

It would be greatly appreciated if someone could direct me to dotmobi's rules concerning this issue. Thanks :D

Thanks for your quick response Cobo!

Do you or anyone else know the precise link where this is addressed by dotmobi?

Not the precise link --- not sure there is even such a thing.
But it is common knowledge that this strategy is being pursued by many.
I have personally discussed this with the mTLD folks at dotMOBI "Happenings" and nothing contrary was ever mentioned.
As long as the site resolves from a mobile phone as per their regs, you can most certainly do the "large site" as well!
Most top mobi developers are utilizing this detection strategy!
So....... Go For It!
