what good mods are there for the n9?

also using the web, it seems to be mobile web. how do i switch to proper web browsing?

for example when i go onto facebook or ebay it brings up the mobile sites not the proper sites
Quick reply... No, I don't have an N9, so beware.
When you use a web browser, it introduces itself to website with its useragent. In order to force the sites to think that you are browsing from a desktop, you might have to change this useragent string - if these websites are stubborn enough to not offer you a choice. How to change a useragent string?

Let me try... I can open either http://www.facebook.com or http://m.facebook.com, no problem, I can choose the interface I prefer to see. However, I don't have an N9, and I don't know how its default browser is regarded by these websites.
