WAP 1.0 had transcoders, but XHTML-MP (Mobile Profile) is used in
devices that connect directly to the internet. For example, a lot of
Verizon cell phones use the Openwave 6.2 browser. If you want to see
how your site looks on one of those devices, download the simulator at:
http://developer.openwave.com/dvl/tools_and_sdk/phone_simulator/index.htm
Also go to the link at right for Phone Simulator Documentation, and get
the XHTML-MP and CSS Reference under the Development Guides section.
One big site design note: this browser does't support any scripting
yet.
There's also a free standalone Windows Mobile simulator, but I don't
have the link offhand.
Usually people don't design their pages to work on both powerful and
limited devices at the same time. Instead they will redirect limited
devices to another version of their site.
