Identifying phone series when connected to a server?

[ianstrain]

Is there a way of discovering the details of a phone that connects to a server. Details like series and development platform?

You could conceivably send some information yourself. For example, you can query the screen size from your code and send that information in your request, and that would be enough to figure out what series the phone belongs to. You can look into sending system properties too.

You could read the user agent field and then look that up in a database of phone stats held on the website.

You can do all this in php for example.
