Hello,

I'm developing a web-based project for which I need to detect the
phone's capabilities (screen size, color depth, graphic formats
supported and cache size). On models using UP.Browser this is trivial,
because this information is available in several environment variables
provided by the browser:

HTTP_X_UP_DEVCAP_ISCOLOR
HTTP_X_UP_DEVCAP_MAX_PDU
HTTP_X_UP_DEVCAP_SCREENDEPTH
HTTP_X_UP_DEVCAP_SCREENPIXELS
HTTP_ACCEPT

DoCoMo phones don't provide any of these variables, while J-PHONE
(Vodafone) terminals provide some of this information.

I have written a small PHP script that retrieves all the environment
variables returned by the phone and saves them into a text file. It's here:

http://www.ag0ny.com/mobile.php

I would like to ask you to visit this script from your phones, in order
to retrieve information about as many terminals as possible.

I'm not only interested in japanese models, but also european/american
ones. The script will also return the environment variables on the
screen, so you can see what information your phone is delivering.

Thanks in advance,
