From the Project Gutenberg Newsletter:

Help create the "http://m.gutenberg.org" web pages!!!

We are working on making all our eBooks optimized to do
their best on iPads, iPhones, iPods, cellphones and PDA
devices, and to do our web pages to the same degree.

Let us know if you have any of these and can test them,
or would like to optimize for any other devices.

There are 4.5 billion such devices in the world, versus
only 1.15 billion computers, and more and more readers,
in spite of what the pundits say, are surfing, reading,
and everything else on such mobile devices.

More and more such devices will ONLY surf to "m" sites
such as "m.gutenberg.org"

Check it out.

This thread was also picked up by Teleread - so I noticed today, read here:

m.gutenberg.org gets you to a specific search page for mobile formats.

Those used at PG are: html, EPUB, Kindle, Plucker and QiOO Mobile.
