X-Device-User-Agent header appearing in requests- One good thing about open standards is that anyone can pick them up and implement them. This means that everyone will benefit from this as the standardization will open new opportunities for everything. If there is one thing that we need in the mobile space, that is standardization.

- DeviceAtlas 1.3.1, better browser detection and more security
- It is July, and you would expect most of the European countries to be on vacation somewhere sunny and hot, but we still took the time to prepare a new release for you. We have a couple of improvements that we wanted to get to you as quickly as possible.

The underestimated object element- One of the more powerful elements in XHTML MP (actually a part of XHTML, but extremely powerful and flexible in our mobile world) is the <object> element. Still, it is not used very often. So, I thought I would do some promotion!

- DeviceAtlas 1.3 adds Python and Ruby support
- When we initially released DeviceAtlas back in February we announced three different API's, Java, PHP and .NET. From the beginning we knew that the Ruby and Python communities would have been knocking at our door and in fact we have not been sitting staring at the wall. The initial API's have been updated and streamlined and now we come with two new flavours that should be welcomed by many web developers.

RIP Openwave Mobile Browser- So as we all get spun up in the excitement and wonder over iPhone 2.0, and as Apple appears to continue its ascendancy in the mobile space, I feel compelled to share about a company that’s gone in the other direction. I don’t know if folks don’t care, or there really isn’t any impact as a result of it, but either way I feel inclined to spend some pixels on a recent development.

Cookie Support, and Mobile Devices- If you're a regular on the site, you'll have noticed that we have been hard at work creating a new Test Suite that will play nicely with DeviceAtlas. During its development, I've had to put up with a ridiculous amount of obscure problems, but there's one that continually rears its ugly, ugly head and makes life hell for me. Cookie support. Or lack of it.

- Device Testing is here, TA-DA!
- We all know how important accurate device profiles are, and this is proven by the success DeviceAtlas has already had in less than 4 month. In the initial months we have focused on consolidating existing "database silos" and we are still doing that, but we want to do more now and introduce real-time browser testing with TA-DA.

Creating Mobile Web Sites with Google App Engine- By now most people have heard of Google's App Engine (GAE). In case you haven't, GAE lets you run your own web applications on Google's extensive network of servers meaning that you can scale your application as traffic demands, with no hardware headaches, no machine provisioning, no LAMP stacks, no Apache configurations.
