Scroll to the very bottom of that section. Hit Save. Browse to a page formerly mobilized. SUCCESS!
This is what has to be done. As for Pandora, YouTube or any other flash intensive, media streaming web site I say use SkyFire as its the best for that sort of thing. I switch between both browsers. I always use Opera with the above mentioned User Agent and if I want to see a news video on msnbc, or cnn or just browse the full youtube site, etc. I use Skyfire as its proxy based rendering makes absolutely sure that sites get streamed to your phone exactly how they are seen on a desktop. I'd use it all the time but I like the graphic quality of Opera and its smart fit function works better. Skyfire is a little blury because it's a compressed image of the page wich is rendered on a proxy server, the slightly lowered image quality coupled with proxied rendering makes it blazingly fast though. If they can sharpen it up a bit visually and make the smart fit feature work better I'll switch over to it permanently.
