Right. But 12 million people uses the same tags, the same
standard and they can access ALL the same pages.
These are perfect conditions right now, you have to
create your pages only one time...and Handset Users
can NOT update their browser on their own, so you have
to wait at least a full lifecycle (around 9 months in Japan)
until you can use new features and can be sure 'all' users
can see it again. In the meantime you have to create more
interfaces for various browsers/handsets.
As a developer I wait for the times that people agree first
on standards and then use them all the same in their products...
but I must be naive still to wait for Mozilla :)
