User agent strings...

Does the user agent string for Opera Mini vary based upon device?

Nexus One....Opera/9.80 (J2ME/MIDP; Opera Mini/5.0.18302/742; U; en) Presto/2.4.15
BB Storm.....Opera/9.80 (J2ME/MIDP; Opera Mini/5.0.0176/742; U; en) Presto/2.4.15
iPhone.....Opera/9.80 (J2ME/MIDP; Opera Mini/5.0.0176/742; U; en) Presto/2.4.15

Could anyone clarify how the browser distinguishes between client devices?

Thank you.

The UA doesn't contain any information about the client device - only the version number of Opera Mini.

Some device information can be found in X-OperaMini-* and X-Operette-* headers, but it's best to not rely on those.
