Server side re-rendering of websites?? Sounds like wide-spread support for that would be lacking... I'm sure as the Sidekick gained traction, more web sites adopted its special rendering requirements as you mention, but in the beginning, things must have been rough!

Disclosure - I've never owned a Sidekick (and know little about them, other than they are apart of Microsoft's 3 screens and a cloud strategy, yet they don't run Windows Mobile (??)).



i'm pretty sure he's talking about servers run by danger that re-render other websites. those other websites don't know or care that they are being presented in such a fashion.


Opera does this for its free Java MIDlet browser (Opera Mini). They also resize and recompress images into JPEG.
