Tested: My n9 just loads to a blank page too.
Tried on my PC and found that page is almost 70% high res .jpgs and thumbnails. They do have a mobile tab at the bottom of the page though (kinda useless if you can't view the page LOL)

For me the browser is one of the biggest let downs of the phone itself. I find the n9 does a rather P**s poor job when it comes to browsing the web, where too many sites either do not load their content or redirect you to a bloody mobile site. I can sympathise with you mate.
