There's an extension to Firefox that would be extremely useful to MicroB. It's called User Agent Switcher.

It well could be ported to Maemo... who knows?

Well, the easy thing right now is to use a series of bookmarks (one for each useragent) that point to stuff like:
Code:
about:config?prefname=general.useragent.override&prefvalue=Mozilla%2F5.0+%28N8x0+like+iPhone%3B+U%3B+Linux+like+Mac+OS+X%3B+ARM%3B+en%29+AppleWebKit%2F420%2B+%28Gecko%2C+like+KHTML%29
Not as easy as UA switcher; you wind up on about:config, and have to navigate back to where you were. But it's fairly easy, prboably easy enough to keep anyone from being motivated to port UA switcher...

Good luck is right.

The Default setting (i.e., tablet browser) for that extension is completely busted and only sets appname and appversion strings. I've had to manually enter in all of the user-agent just to get Facebook working again. But there's still something wrong with it as the Tableteer site doesn't recognize the tablet as a tablet. "Platform" and "User Agents" (note the plural) are still blank in its chrome settings panel, and I have no idea what they should be.
