Goodness Gracious have I been made a fool here by having made understood that the N900 only returns Desktop website pages..No Matter what the website is...And which is not the case currently with me.
blame the website, they spesifically have included n900's user agent:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux armv7l; en-GB; rv:1.9.2b6pre) Gecko/20100318 Firefox/3.5 Maemo Browser 1.7.4.8 RX-51 N900
into the mobile devices list.

facebook tried to do the same but I guess they got so much bad feedback that it was reverted in under a week. don't suspect sites you mentioned doing the same though...

I can give you a solution but it costs $4,99 per minute
