Here's a list of mobile user agents. We don't need all of them, but the ones listed under Nokia, HTC, iPhone and Motorola (i.e. the ones that have Maemo, Android and the iPhone OS )
Priority: -- → P3
Target Milestone: --- → 1.7
Target Milestone: 1.7 → 1.8
Priority: P3 → P2
Priority: P2 → P1
Ack, forgot to include the list of user agents here:

Is anyone going to pick this up?
Sorry about the delay. Since we're going to push out 1.8 today and I will neither get review nor QA if I fix this now, we can't land it. We could do a tiny 1.8.1 (or 1.9, doesn't matter) release for this, and L10n, and bug 590688, for example next Tuesday. Let me know what you think.

Yeah, that should be fine.
Target Milestone: 1.8 → 1.9
Target Milestone: 1.9 → 1.8.1
Target Milestone: 1.8.1 → 1.8

This is how it works: Only if you access the front page without any path (i.e., / but not /en-US/) we'll detect your UA and decide if you are using a mobile device we care about. If so, we forward you to the front page of the mobile site.

The currently "known" mobile UAs are: Fennec, Android, Maemo, iPhone, iPod, iPad.

(Wait, quick question: Do we want iPad to be considered mobile?)

Long answer: I played around with the iPad this weekend and the desktop dashboard works beautifully with it.

Short answer: nope.

Stephend - UA detection is working for me by going to input.stage.mozilla.com for the latest fennec trunk build and the latest released android stock browser.
Removed the iPad, while keeping all the others as in comment 6.

Does that mean stephend gets to expense out an iPad to verify?

I sure hope he does. :)

If not, he can set his UA to the iPad UA -- or step by Lilly's desk to borrow one ;)

Thanks; tested on my n900 and my iPhone; both gave me the Mobile experience.  Juan graciously verified on his in-office iPad (I own one, it's just at home).
