Yeah, I'm pretty disappointed that the Sprint Diamond has this flaw as well. Why would they put this default setting in their version of Opera to make it identify as a mobile browser?

I figured out ESPN...just go to http://espn.go.com in the address bar instead of the normal www.espn.com.

I did this and it loaded the whole page; obviously a little slower than the mobile site, but it sure as heck looked good on that VGA screen.

Someone has to figure this out. I tried a registry hack I found on xda, and messed with the opera.ini file. Both gave me no results.

I wonder why this isn't bigger news. Seems no one is complaining about this.

I thought that the opera the diamond came with was supposed to be great? it always goes to mobile versions of websites or only a few? and skyfire wont work ouch this hurts def something im going to be angry with when i get my phone this week.

Re: Browse like a desktop
 

Also what about skyfire doesnt work? does it not install at all? not load up? crash alot more than on other phones/etc ? thanks in advance

It is a nice browsing experience overall. BUT, it does go to the mobile version of most media pages, like Nytimes, Cnn, Msnbc, Espn etc.
I think these sites were coded to recognize mobile browsers and give condensed versions of the page to cut down on load times.

For standard web pages, you get the desktop browser view.

One of the previous rips of the Opera build had this limitation a while back also. IMO it's frustrating and unnecessary.

Can some one look into www.nfl.com. It always loads up in mobile version

www.2advanced.com Perfect site to show off your flash capabilities to your iphone friends.

question... is there a reg hack or setting so that my phone is recognized as a desktop rather than a cell phone?

The only reason i want flash is to get www.pandora.com to work, but it tells me pandora only supports certain sprint phones and not mine... so i wanna fool it into thinking i'm at my desktop...

any suggestions?

Re: Browse like a desktop
 

I agree, I'd love to get pandora working on my phone
