Full-Web Browsing

[palmanoe]

In the Opera browser>Tools>Settings>General, there is an option to "Identify as" "Handheld device" or "Desktop computer" does anyone know what this does?

I'm trying to get my browser to work like the full-web browser (like the IPhone) you have on your laptop or desktop computer at home. I've switched to the "Desktop computer" option, but don't see the difference. For example, I'm still getting the mobile version of Yahoo's website.

Thanks!

I think that has more to do with AT&T's partnership with Yahoo, or bad programming on Yahoo's part. If you you try Google's site with each setting and clear your cookies you will get each site.
