I am trying to come up with a style sheet for a site I am working on
that addresses small devices.
Here is a typical page:

Here are style sheets:

http://cantoraccess.com/css/menu.css
http://cantoraccess.com/css/small_device.css
it looks fine on the simulators I've tried:
http://iphonetester.com/
http://app.protofluid.com/
but when I use browsercam to take screen shots on most devices the
font size gets really, really small.
I signed up with up a browsercam group for the same reason and,
frankly, this has proven to be a waste of money and a grave disappointment.

So - few questions.
Are there simulators out there that are more reliable in showing what
shows up on the various devices?
The OperaMini "simulator" is quite good.
<http://www.opera.com/mobile/demo/ >Viewing the page in a small window
in Safari and WebKit is very helpful. Same in Opera. Best is to ask
friends and or on the various lists to check the site live in whatever
device they may have available . Simulators are handy but they really
do not offer direct user experience with functionality, usability, and
readability
Why is the type so small?
How can I fix it?
Use media queries and set no font smaller than default [100%].

thanks all,
