Have you ever seen Facebook on an iPhone? Or Google? Both of these sites recognize the iPhone and provide optimized pages that look beautiful on the device. The OpenDNS website is already one of the best designed websites out there, but hey, an iPhone version would be a very cool enhancement.

agreed, as a system admin i use my iphone to access opendns a lot and it would be nice to have something for iPhone

I'd rather see a version optimized for mobile devices in general. That way it's useful for many more people.

Just a mobile-friendly version makes the most sense. Would be something to consider re: Dashboard first, or OpenDNS.com first or the Guide or Community features.

The dashboard would be my first choice for iphone/mobile management.

Well, I'll be darned. You mean the iPhone doesn't use a proprietary iDNS?

Seriously, I didn't realize many mobile/phone users had the ability to choose/set their preferred DNS servers.

Would it merely require a browser check then a custom CSS page for mobile browsers?

it could easily be implemented like many of the major sites already have with the "m." standard.

ie: m.opendns.com would go to the portalised version of the site.

iwebkit.net already has working examples of detecting the browser version so you could just redirect it back to the normal opendns.com site if the browser type is not detected as one that is compatible.

iwebkit.net also gives some great examples on how to make an "iPhone" looking website.

Only Apple people would ask this question as if Apple is the centre of the universe. ;')

I think the real question is:

Can we have a simple, basic HTML, mobile version of the dashboard page for users of handlhelds, PDA's, etc. to access their account?

But yeah, I think this is a good idea.

The best site I have found for the iphone is http://BookMarkBaby.com. It is the only touch screen search engine I have seen that keeps you from having to deal with URL typing.

My Ipod touch used to work great until about 5 weeks ago. No changes to settings allowed now. Muy sado!
