It seems that many websites now redirecting to their mobile counterparts.

Is there some sort of user agent list that websites use to determine who gets sent where?

As for parts of the User Agent string itself, it's not MicroB, since websites go full on the N800.

I tested and it seems to be the word 'Maemo' since if the User Agent string only contains this word, the websites will go for their mobile counterpart.

Not anymore. It seems after PR1.2 (maybe a coincidence), all sites I've tested (Facebook, YouTube, etc.) all go to the full site.
