Shelby, I don't do much with cell phone web sites, but I'm pretty sure cell 
phones can only access sites that are written in *their* language -- WML 
(Wireless Markup Language) and that's where some of this XHTML/XML stuff is 
coming into play.

http://www.wap.com/ -- has some good info on wireless and there's an 
emulator there somewhere, I've just lost the link now, but I know it was 
there -- I saw it.

HTH,
