I don't think it'll help N900 owners.
I really appreciate the ability of the N900 browser, but I also appreciate mobile versions of sites. Sometimes it's just quicker to load, quicker to review large amounts of info. Some sites I have both bookmarked. And some people without an unlimited 3g plan are helped by mobile pages. So it matters, whether it suits you or not. But mobile pages intended for the old iPhone (and many Android phones with similar res) have fonts that are just too small, and annoying at times. So I am hoping...
