Also, you can't edit posts in the mobile version.
At least, not on the version of the site that my mom's Blackberry defaults to, anyways.

Could omnimaga detect if you are on an iPod, and switch to wap2 if so?

I think that is dependent on the iPod's software.

It could probably be done via the user agent string.

Yes and no. It's easily detectable, it's the switching of the themes that's the hard part.  I don't know if smf allows it dynamically like that.

And he goes and ninjas me. But yes, it can.

Possibly, usually I just add a ;wap2 after an address to open it in wap2 (make sure it's after the ? though)
In the past I tried to implement a iPod/iPhone specific theme, but it didn't work out unfortunately.

Well, here is what an ipod user agent kinda looks like. It's faked, because it's safari making browsers think it's an iphone, but it still shows what to look for:
Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1
2
Mozilla/5.0 (iPod; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_1 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Mobile/8B117 Safari/6531.22.7

basically all you need to do is have the check look for iPhone in the string. Don't know what files to change though to detect this, and I also like giving the users the choice on what version they want to browse

If you could change the wap2 page, you could add a thing that says "do you want to use the real thing" and save that to a cookie or omnimaga user info.

Well...it could get annoying. Personally, the links in the sidebar are good enough, and everybody who know's about adding the ;wap2 at the end will have it really easy.

I'm sure it would be possible to setup SMF to detect iPods, but I don't know how and it might prevent future SMF upgrades, not to mention some people might prefer using the default forum view on their ipods.

Yeah, I always use the default theme.  You could have it be based on the user itself, but that would require tons of mods.
