Default Not Getting the Mobile Site?

We're trying to track down why this is happening, but if you're visiting this site on your Pocket PC and not getting directed to the mobile version of the site, please do the following: go to this page, and respond to this thread with your browser string. We're not sure why some of you are getting the mobile version and some are not - thanks for your help!

The browser string you SHOULD be seeing is:

Mozilla/2.0 (compatible; MSIE 3.02; Windows CE; PPC; 240x320)

Default Accessing via my PPC

I see "Mozilla/2.0 (compatible; MSIE 3.02; Windows CE; 240x320)" when I go to the page link (without the quotes, of course.)

I am getting to Thoughts from http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com using my Toshiba e740 via modem. My desktop, my usual reading device is in the shop this week.

I can get a short set of posts if I go to www.pocetpcthoughts.com/mobile. Don't particularly like to as it only has a few of today's articles.

Default Fixed?

I have a Compaq/HP iPAQ H3970 Pocket PC. I think it's running on EUU2.

Mozilla/2.0 (compatible; MSIE 3.02Windows CE; PPC; 240x320)

I am using the ActiveSync passthrough connection, and I am seeing the mobile version of the site. It looks nice by the way.

I know you didn't ask this question, but when I use my mobile phone to access your site, I get sent to the main page and it kills the browser. Here's the user agent string:
Mozilla/4.0
(MobilePhone
SCP-4900/1.0)
NetFront/3.0
MMP/2.0

Would be nice if you could redirect to the mobile site for those of use with the newer webbrowsing phones.
