Simetrical's been doing some work on the handheld stylesheet lately,
which brings me to the subject of testing MediaWiki in actual
mobile/handheld browsers.

I stuck a few notes up the other day on the subject of testing with
emulators:

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mobile_browser_testing


To summarize real quick:

* Opera Mini can be tested in any desktop web browser via a Java applet
that Opera provides

* IE Mobile / Pocket IE can in theory be tested in an emulator that
Microsoft provides (for Windows PCs), but I haven't gotten networking to
work so haven't been able to reach a wiki with it


If someone can get the Windows Mobile/PocketPC/Windows CE/whatever thing
working, or knows of good resources for testing other mobile
OSs/browsers, that would be welcome news!

Volunteers for testing on actual devices and donations of devices are
also welcome.
