I have just started using Andy Moore’s Wordpress Mobile plugin for Tech[dot]Blog. This is an excellent and worthy alternative to Alex King’s WP Mobile plugin which adheres to W3C and mTLD dotMobi certifications and standards.
Here are some of the features and best things I like about this plugin:
1) SEO friendly titles and H1 tags: With Alex King’s WP Mobile plugin, one needed to explicitly browse to a URL such as http://thinkabdul.com/wp-mobile.php (for which I had setup a redirect from mobile.thinkabdul.com). Another problem that arised out of this was that Mobile Search engine crawlers that indexed a website contained URLs such as http://thinkabdul.com/wp-mobile.php?p=2119&more=1.
Andy Moore’s plugin solves both the problems- it displays a mobile friendly version of a website without changing the URL
2) Automatic mobile browser referrer string detection including for Playstation Portable
3) Post and upload files to Wordpress blog from mobile phone
4) Show as well as leave comments
5) Highly configurable & easy to customise:
» Change Index page welcome comment
» Change Archive link anchor text
» Change Pages link anchor text
» Set headline to show if blog updated today
» Select Internal or External Style Sheets
» Select permalinks or redirects
» Enable, disable or view traffic monitoring
» Set a password to post from your mobile
6) Earn revenue from AdMob:
» Select where to positions the ads
» Customise Ad links page anchor text
» Set a comment to go next to the ads

2Hi Alex
I tested your plugin again with the dotmobi emulator and found that it still needs to redirect to /wp-mobile.php for the mobile version. Using Andy Moore’s plugin, just typing http://thinkabdul.com takes me to the mobile version of the website.
Please test it again and let me know your results.

3There is no wp-mobile.php file in the current version, so you must not be testing the current version.
