I wrote a php script once to parse out the user agent and OS of people requesting my feed.  I used it to estimate subscribers ... I moved over to feedburner and abandonded my script ... but it certainly is possible ... I know of at least one script that did something similar :-P

I dont have alot of time to spend coding, but I could probably whip up with a php function to return the user agent, IP, and OS (when/if such information is available) ... would that be enough for you to accomplish what you want to do?

You could then use/test those values to decide what version of the feed to give them.

but no one's yet done it...
(ok, jump in to correct me if / where I'm wrong)
