Viewing full webpages on iPhone

A lot of webpages automatically redirect an iPhone to a less than full featured mobile version of the site when viewed with the Safari app on the iPhone, limiting the usability of the site.

Many sites can be viewed in full on the Opera Mini Web browser app (free), including eBay. Under settings, you can change mobile view to off, unlike in Safari.

[crarko adds: There is a growing number of web browsers for iOS, many designed to overcome shortcomings in Mobile Safari. A number of them are Universal, unlike the Opera Mini app (currently). You can search for them all in the App Store.]
