AKA "There's an app for that"
The handheld units of today are wondrous machines with limitations that somewhat defy understanding. When these devices started mainstreaming mobile use of the net they touted the end of mobile versions of web pages. Apple is famous for making the nytimes that well was the nytimes.com not some text based bastardized version. Now there is any app for that too.
Standards should mean something, designers and programmers have had pages that work cross-platform for ages yet now any additional hiccup has been thrown in. Instead everything from wall street journal to your favorite tv shows site needs to be append down to size.
Just tell me straightforward that your device uses a weird resolution and wont display pages properly instead of appending them to your app-list. There are legitimate apps like productivity, games and research tools. If you dont fall into that category you should not be counted as anything but making up for odd limitations due to stupid engineering choices.
