Hi Lauren

I noticed google was indexing some of our i-mode sites - But missing the
i-mode pages themselves ! and instead transforming regular pages into
something that *could* be considered imode viewable - so I think your
question is important in practice.

Some ideas:
- The CHTML meta tag is a given but I am not sure smaller sites use it so:
- I would probably look for pages that have the
ACCESSKEY or TEL: tags.
- And probably, as a quick trick, anything over 5K could be discarded from
the start.
