I Want Unification
Sites should drop the mobile version of their apps or at least, give the option of going to the full site. Some do this already, and I applaud those sites. Get rid of Flash and use HTML 5, don't do any mouse overs or anything other than clicks so you don't need a mouse. Get rid of the Javascript as well. Then your site will work on most devices.

I have an iPhone 4S, an iPad 2, a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, and I Nook Tablet with the new N2A 32Gb card. So I have two iOS devices and two Android devices. The iPad 2, Galaxy Tab 10.1 and the Nook Tablet have no problems dealing with the full Web site, so don't push me over to the mobile side, and actually I don't like it when I get shoved to the mobile site when I'm on my iPhone 4S. I can't think of any reason to want the mobile site anymore. Yes, at one time when the devices were too slow, but not anymore. Each of my devices is dual core, and depending upon what comes out next, quad core will be "normal". In fact some of the quad core devices are out already. The only real big hinderance is the mouse over (this "feature" I really hate on the laptop/desktop, it's so annoying). just stop doing it.
