We have been at work on a number of your suggestions/recommendations to improve the end-user experience for some time. The Javascript Problem is a major issue from the POV that 85%-90% of devices don't support this functionality. And most work-arounds are klugey at best. We leave it up to the Skweezer end-user to turn on/off this functionality in their Preferences--the same way you would with your Internet Options in IE, for example. Also, from the Publisher's side: we're sensitive to how the ads (read: "sources of revenue") are being removed as a function of this Javascript issue. Therefore, we are about to launch an innovative ad marketplace called Advertizer™ that aggregates the best possible ads from multiple suppliers (not just AdSense) so desktop and mobile publishers can maximize their revenues. There will also be a blog plug-in that will retrieve context-based ads and display the result as "straight text"... so no ads will be removed when these transcoding solutions help mobile users see blog content (or any other publisher using our Advertizer plug-ins). Cheers, Kevin Perkins CEO, Greenlight Wireless http://kevinperkins.wordpress.com/2006/02/27/skweezer-on-your-mobile-desktop-car-webtv-psp-what-next/ Thanks for the mention…

Mobile browsing will dominate the web in a few years, so this is a very, very important area. Things I’ve talked about before, like content transcoding, could be implemented very effectively in a service like this (as the problem domain is quite specific per service type, and not too general when compared to the overall web). Providing mobile optimized API’s for different types of services would allow for easier creating of mobile front-ends and mash-ups, a thing that certainly isn’t always easy.
