Great post, as usual, Randy. As we're thinking about our mobile strategy here at my client, we're going to go with all <capability name="isMobileDevice" value="false" /> until we can sort through what the *right* answers might be, undoubtedly after launch.

This approach feels a bit hacky - pretending that the iphone isn't a mobile browser. Also, if you want to turn off the mobile experience for iPhone, you probably want to turn it off for all mobile devices.

In that case, how about just deactivating the MobilityRedirect feature from Sharepoint Powershell? I believe the syntax is: Disable-SPFeature -Identity MobilityRedirect -Url http://yoursite

This didn't work for us either. After some research I have found an easier and working way to get the job done. I have briefly described it in this topic:

I really need that this trick works for me, but when I change the compat.browser file I get an error for the entire site, even If I only add a backspace to this file. I really need to deactivate mobile browsing, Have you other workaround for this?

I actually hadn't checked on the content author / admin experience from the iPhone. Just checked. Let's just say in the build I have, the experience wasn't so hot with the ribbon / javascript scrolling. Might work better with a floating ribbon rather than one stuck to the top.

OOTB it looks like the experience is only good for end user site viewers.

Nice! I haven't tried this trick yet. Do you get full SharePoint functionality on the iPhone when you turn off the automagic mobile experience?
