One thing to note for Android users... the mobile site is sized to fit on an iphone screen, so android screens that are larger will have less screen filled by default (though zoom and it is no issue).

The mobile site is actually sized for blackberries from several years ago. For Iphone, I used the viewport meta tags, and mobile firefox uses those as well. Android doesn't use the viewport standard? I thought Google was smarter than that.

Haven't noticed it being used. I'll have to grab mobile firefox and see if that works around it... though usually, I don't use the mobile version of the site, just load up the full version.
