After being fed up with the stock Android browser for yet another time (couldn't resize a website, and thus couldn't access anything on the site), I thought I'd give Opera Mobile another try. And what can I say, I'm stunned. It's blazing fast (once it's past the splash screen, which takes a while to load), scrolling is soo smooth and it does what I want.
However, there are some problems. It's not that there are some cosmetic issues with some websites. It's mainly the site operators, first and foremost Google, who think they know better. So I get the super "mobile" version of GMail and Calendar, which is basically a plain text page with some links. Not what I want. So here are the URLs you would really want if you use Opera Mobile and Google:
"Touch" GMail: http://mail.google.com/mail/x/gdlakb-/gp/
"Touch" Calendar: http://google.com/calendar/gp/
"Touch" Reader: http://www.google.com/reader/i/
Why do they not give you the option right away?
