The N9 is behaving like other consumer smartphones. It assumes you want the mobile pages. Why wouldn't you anyway? The non-mobile pages are very hard to read on a phone screen.

for n900 there is "hide user agent" which let's you customize the user-agent string. i suppose something similar should be possible to code for harmattan as well.

Also, I bet the N9/N950 browser is a friggin' powerhouse. It can handle your puny desktop sites. Minus flash ofcourse.
At the moment I think its more a problem of sites not really recognizing the N9. For eg. in the first two weeks of the N9, Twitter went from the horrific m.twitter.com site to the mobile.twitter.com site that seems to utilise HTML5. It has nice drop-down menus etc.
So, maybe we will have to wait and see. But I would really appreciate a "Hide user agent" app while we wait...

You can also blame the networks for imprisoning themselves in their little world of WAP. The majority of networks now only offer as little as 250MB data allowance, rising to 750MB for some extortionate costs.
Opera 11 now has it's own built in user agent control, but not sure where things stand with the N9, because Maemo Opera is a development that's being run outside of official opera development.

is there a way to keep this from happenining?
I think I saw it mentioned as coming on konttori's blog, check it out.
A little birdy told me the latest build of Fennec's a great alternative

Not a perfect match for Harmattan's UI of course...
Opera not so bad too....

Although it's not yet optimized for Harmattan's UI.
Yet to hear from them about an official release.
