    CNN for instance has a very well developed mobile edition.

    software support[edit | edit source]

    The tikiwiki wiki software uses HeeHaw to support mobile on all wikis. Mediawiki has no such capability.

    en.wapedia.org is a Wikipedia (MediaWiki) to WAP (versions 1 and 2) and PDA version - this is not however very flexible. Rumour has it that Florian Amrhein, the developer and provider of the wapedia-portal to WP is going to release the code under a Free software license sometime soon. Perhaps he would be best to just integrate with HeeHaw.
