I noticed sometimes no ads or less ads show in the browser on my ipod touch and I would assume the iphone is the same. I tried the regular search and the ad preview tool. Is there any mobile browser out there that will show all ads as shown on a desktop browser?

You can get the non-mobile user experience if you go through a proxy that can specify a different user agent. I have the Surrogafier script set up in a private folder on my site, and I can use that to see all the ads even from my iPhone.

Thanks guys, I found a page that explains how to hack the iphone user agent if anyone wants it PM me. I think using a proxy is preferable although that Surrogafier one did not work when I tried to access:

[adwords.google.com...]

Can you access that specific URL through Surrogafier Rehan?

I think Surrogafier has some issues with SSL. I don't bother with the framed Ad Preview Tool... I just type the URL directly and include the geotargeting parameters. For example, [google.com...]

I see what you mean, working fine for me now using the URL directly, thanks.
