every time I try and visit espn.com or NFL.com it starts loading the mobile versions of the sites. I don't use bookmarks I type in the urls exactly as I have here, any one know what I can do?
 
The problem is that these sites and many others are set up to automatically detect what type of device you are using and then redirect you to the mobile version. Usually you can click on a link that will take you to the regular page and then you can bookmark that one. For instance, with espn.com, on the bottom of the page there is a link labeled "ESPN.com" that will take you to espn.go.com.

My first gen IPhone and my 3g (prior to 2.0.1) never forced me to a mobile version of a site, now this phone is doing it, and I don't like it.
