PRP - artifact #6 - non-CSS view


The iPhone above demonstrates the site without CSS styling. This goes to show that bare basics still offer some sort of accessibility to the much lesser equipped devices.

Cufon styles the title - this being a decision I made in light of Android being non-compatible (so far) with font-face. I am still considering the use of the logo as an image. This means it will definitely work on Nokia, Blackberry too, but will add to the page load. Admittedly 3k might not be so bad, but the less the better.

-------------

This is the main bug I'm having with this artifact. To make a fully accessible, but rich mobile site means using tricks and tips, in turn meaning increasing data. On the other hand, you can make it really lean, utilising the latest CSS3 to dynamically generate content but at the cost of alienating the older devices.

So far, I'm leaning towards accessibility, but I still have a few ideas to help relieve the growing data packet.
