Yep. I will admit to deliberately not mentioning beanstalk in my initial response because I think the approach of carving out different sets of HTML for different browsers (whether mobile or desktop based) is difficult to test and maintain, versus defining the content that you want in your HTML once and changing the layout via CSS based on the display capabilities of the consuming browser. And it seems that Google, at least, agrees that responsive design is the best practice: https://developers.google.com/webmasters/smartphone-sites/details
