    But the N900i and SH900iS (and maybe the other DoCoMo
900 series) do render UTF-8 web pages quite nicely.  And as a side note
remeber if you use emoji, if you use utf8 you must use unicode emoji.

    (And UTF8 is not the only unicode used by mobile phones....
I had to use a type of UTF16 for some of the titles in midi files for some
phones (I think in spain)!  I don't know if the browser also used
UTF16 or not)

    But in my tests with the D505i, I'm pretty sure it croaked on UTF8 web
pages.
