There was this place listing all sorts of User Agents and from my
understanding the UA is not property of any such portal, so retrieving one
of the User Agents seems OK:
https://www.handsetdetection.com/properties/vendormodel/Nokia

However,the Lumia 635 seems unkown also to that site.

Almost scary to know, a phone like the Nokia N70 alone (
https://www.handsetdetection.com/properties/vendormodel/Nokia/N70) seems to
have 2119 uniquely distinct UA signatures all refering to the same device[?]
So the Nokia 100 only lists 1 unique UA, while many other devices have up
to 4000 unique UA signatures it seems.

Must be harvested via an automated sytem, it is hard to believe manual
entry copes with Hundred Thousands unique UA strings...

This site has some sort of UUID (for the myriads of strings) but unlike the
actual UA string ("Nokia100/2.0 (2.0423.0_rc02) SymbianOS/7.0s Series60/2.1
Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.0" for Nokia 100) it should be
assumed unique to the site and must not be used.
