Ok, I saw a couple of mobile device discovery scripts looking to identify all mobile phones, each of which came up with a simple smart phone detection script?
I use the jQueryMobile framework and want the theme to be device based, am I going about it wrong or is there any advice that could be given?
What defines a smartphone?
What I saw, but I find it difficult to detect smartphones:
I like this feature here, but I need to trim it:

UPDATE:
Another approach that I was thinking about was Mobile OS , and then filter by device, who has any thoughts on this?
