Does anyone know if there is a list available of the screen widths for common devices such as mobiles, PDAs etc. I want to use alternate stylesheets to allow the user to set the width to match their device. Not for every screen ever made, but the majority ones. That way I can make stylesheets with minimum widths that are guaranteed to fit.

Say the default layout suits 1024 x 768. I want to use coloured blocks of a fixed size but don't want users enlarging the text and having it overflow the blocks. It'd be great if the user could select a larger size (if they have a bigger monitor) via a stylesheet and have it resize the blocks as well as the text. A bit like Opera's zoom feature. Thus maintaining the layout.

I just found this great program for resizing any window to a set size. You can also use custom sizes which will be ideal once I know what smaller screen widths to use.

I'm laboring in futility on an HTML print-only form, so I'm interested in window sizes too! This one does it in your browser window.
