We too encountered this problem. After a few hours of research and diving
into the SharePoint assemblies with reflector I have found a way to get it to
work. As in, to display the normal website on all mobile devices. This was our
goal, so I didn't research options to get the mobile view to work on a public
facing site.
For this, add within the web.config file of the WebApp in the section
configuration/system.web:
<browserCaps>
<result
type="System.Web.Mobile.MobileCapabilities, System.Web.Mobile, Version=2.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"/>
<filter>isMobileDevice=false</filter>
</browserCaps>
This method is officially deprecated since the .NET Framework 3.0, but
works like a charm. Needless to say that one could easily wrap this in a feature
event receiver to adjust the web.config files upon deployment.
