wikipedia mobile pre The Wikimedia Foundation has officially launched a new mobile optimized version of Wikipedia. This new mobile version is designed for "fully featured" smartphones. The current version supports the Palm Pre, iPhone, Kindle and Android platforms. Initial languages supported include English and German with more planned.

Users on the Pre are automatically redirected to the mobile version, with a link at the bottom of the page to view the standard page or disable mobile redirection permanently. It also works with the Pre's universal search feature as well/ You can checkout some screenshots on the Pre after the break.

I should note that there is also: http://mobile.wikipedia.org/

Which works on the Centro and others nicely as well.
