Use this trick to override MicroB's user agent and unlock hidden iPod Touch websites -

Code:
about:config?prefname=general.useragent.override&prefvalue=Mozilla%2F5.0+%28iPhone%3B+U%3B+CPU+like+Mac+OS+X%3B+en%29+AppleWebKit%2F420.1+%28KHTML%2C+like+Gecko%29+Version%2F3.0+Mobile%2F3A109a+Safari%2F419.3
2. click "Set Preference"
3. Enjoy!

To go back to the original MicroB setting for N810 with OS2008

When I type about:config into the browser it continues to crash the browser for some reason. Any ideas of why? Thanks. (I'm running OS2008 on N800)

Thank you!
