However the One Web principle does require that one URL will deliver that 'same information' to all devices. Just on bandwidth cellphone charges and on limited battery capacity, I think it's better to have several URLs delivering that 'same information'. There's a limit to how far device detection and different style sheets can deliver a technically satisfactory content to different devices from just one URL. You’re right, Jo.
