1. Any plans to offer a Python (vs. PHP) interface? 2. Is there a test portal where we can see what info gets reported for a specific device without having to set up a test page ourselves? Thank you, Malcolm

Hi Malcolm, 1. Yes ! No exact date as yet. It will be in a fairly short timeframe (the next 3 to 6 weeks). There will be a blurb about it in the next newsletter. 2. Yes - You can see the device information on the "Handset List" page (link at the bottom of the page). Cheers r

Richard, 1. Great news on the Python support! Will you be sending out an annoucement when your Python support is available? 2. I'm familiar with the list of devices you support - what I'm looking for is a test site that I can contact from our customer devices to see exactly what gets reported for a specific device including geolocation info, etc. In other words, we want to see for ourselves what is happening with real vs. theoretical devices. I was hoping that you might have a test portal that potential customers could use to trial your service before committing to setting up a test system themselves. Thank you, Malcolm

Hi Malcolm, Yes, there will be an announcement. Right, I get what you mean. Thats a good idea. Would something that dumps the info about the current device out to the screen be ok ? Im thinking just a few bits of info like vendor, model, screen size etc.. Cheers r

Richard, > Would something that dumps the info about the current device out to the screen be OK? I'm thinking just a few bits of info like vendor, model, screen size etc. Yes! Nothing to be used for production purposes, simply a demonstration tool for potential customers to see how your service works with their personal *real-life* devices vs. 7000+ *theoretical* devices. Right now, the only way to do this is to sign-up for your service and install the appropriate software. IMO this is a significant and unnecessary barrier. In terms of what to show, I would show all device specific info (geolocation, ids, etc) and a few sample generic bits of info about the device (including screen resolution). Thanks for listening. Regards, Malcolm PS: Hurry up with that Python support :)

Hi Malcom. A Python package implementing the class is available on Google Code here: http://code.google.com/p/handset-detection-python-api-kit/
