TinyURL should be mobile-savvy

As far as I can tell, TinyURL is not mobile savvy.

I get a ton of TinyURLs now via Twitter over SMS and click them most of the time. I am fortunate to have a mobile browser that can handle most things. But, what if TinyURL recognized a phone and sent the browser to a mobile-formatted page, maybe passed through Mowser?

Russ, if you read this: get on the line with the TinyURL guys and inject some mobile-savviness into them!
