An HTTP GET Request with the UA in Nightly: Mozilla/5.0 (Android; Mobile; rv:14.0) Gecko/14.0 Firefox/14.0a1 -- is served a basic mobile light-weight HTML version of http://news.google.com An HTTP GET Request with the UA in Chrome Beta: Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.0.4; en-us; Galaxy Nexus Build/IMM76D) AppleWebKit/535.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) CrMo/16.0.912.77 Mobile Safari/535.7 -- is served the mobile touch-friendly version of http://news.google.com Spoofing the UA in Nightly to Chrome Beta's will result in the mobile touch-friendly version (as of April 2012) of the site with some caveats of broken layout. Initial look at some of the WebKit properties they are using: * -webkit-appearance * -webkit-background-size * -webkit-border-radius * -webkit-box-align * -webkit-box-flex * -webkit-box-orient * -webkit-box-pack * -webkit-box-shadow * -webkit-box-sizing * -webkit-input-placeholder * -webkit-scrollbar * -webkit-scrollbar-button * -webkit-scrollbar-corner * -webkit-scrollbar-thumb * -webkit-scrollbar-track * -webkit-scrollbar-track-piece * -webkit-text-size-adjust * -webkit-transform * -webkit-transition * -webkit-user-select

We should only link to bug 739832 if the site is broken on gecko without the UA changed.
No longer depends on: 739832

As if June 14th, 2012 - they are now serving a sub-optimal basic HTML version. As I understand it, we're really pushing for their touch-webkit based version.

As of 08/07, Google is serving the touch version of their site.

Doesn't work for me. If a user searches through google.com for news, you will get the touch site. However - if you go to news.google.com directly, you will end up getting the old HTML mobile site rendered.

The page looks much the same in Firefox and Android stock browser now - I think it's the same version. However, the top menu is missing in Firefox. Reported as bug 920466.
