Great idea!  I just added:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no, minimal-ui">

to all Nick's pages on my host.  It helped a lot on my phone.

According to some (reputable?) sources, glean from a single Google search, mobile use has overtaken desktop use (desktop includes laptops). If true, then is a good idea to design new web sites with this in mind, and use a platform that supports "responsive" design, where the platform detects the capabilities of the user's browser and formats pages accordingly. I haven't dug into Nick's site yet, so I don't how amenable the pages are to formatting for a four inch screen :-)
