[Dshield] Mobile-friendly DShield/ISC pages?

I know that BB and WM5/6 devices work differently here; I have a WM6
device using IE Mobile (can't wait til Firefox releases their Firefox
Mobile, but it will be a while yet). (BTW, I must say that IE Mobile
really really sucks quite badly.) Anyhow, I have 3 ways to display a
page: "One Column", "Fit To Screen", and "Desktop". The latter one
presents a small "desktop" screen (not larger than 640x480) that shows
the user vertical and horizontal scrollbars to move the actual displayed
portion around. The others trim down the display to fit my little
240x320 screen (actually less as it's inside a window that has top and
bottom bars); "fit to screen" is often the suckiest on pages that aren't
designed for mobile devices, as it will compress and overwrite portions
of the display. Pictures slow things down enormously, and are shrunk so
much that they are useless anyway unless the "desktop" page display
method is chosen.
Google automatically redirects to mobile-designed pages by checking the
user-agent parameters, and that would probably be the best way to
proceed - that way you avoid redesigning the normal pages.
I'd be willing to be a test user, if necessary.

The vertical ad banners are a hassle on my blackberry....
Maybe a smaller title font as well, takes up a full screen when broken
to a word or so a line :)
