is there a reason why there is no small implementation
directly in
mediawiki to make a wiki accessible since the same adress?
I mean, we have a different page for printing pages, couldn't this be
done also for pda?
Sure. Somebody just has to do it. Preferably someone with access to
a bunch of typical PDAs and Internet-enabled cell phones and so on.

Actually, you don't. The print stylesheet is used whether or not you
click "Printable version". That's just to appease people who assume
that they'll get what they see when they print. :)

Okay, that's a good first suggestion. The left margin for the main
content should be killed. This can be done by just using @media
handheld rule. Probably. Unfortunately, when I tried it with Opera's
small-screen mode, unpleasant things happened.
Technically, your handheld should not be loading the stylesheet. It's
marked explicitly as screen and projection only. It's really not
meant for handhelds, by and large. (Opera in small-screen mode does
seem to load it, but only specific rules. It guesses that quite well,
though. My attempts to improve it resulted in disaster, since it
actually did what I said and tried doing the whole thing.)
Not sure. For example, google, which has a pda special
interface,
detects the browser and switches automatically to a light interface.
imho, it could be done on a mediawiki page, the software detects the
browser and shows the right interface.
Unfortunately, that's hard to do and hard to maintain.
