Is there any software emulator for the Treo 650 that we could use to reproduce
this bug?

I believe the Palm OS Simulator (http://www.palmos.com/dev/tools/simulator/) will do what you need. While I have not
used it myself, I know a friend uses it for debugging his Palm-based VNC program.

As to whether or not it will have the proper version of Blazer, I have no idea.

A possible fix is to use the mySkin skin (check your account preferences).
It comes with no formatting at all though you can add some by editing
your user stylesheet: user:Name/mySkin.css

Perhaps Mediawiki or the servers (whoever's responsible) can either switch skins
or not load the stylesheet when it detects Blazer as the useragent? This is
*not* a Treo specific issue, but one with Blazer - I can confirm that my
LifeDrive which has Blazer 4 has the same problem as described above.

I've had problems with my Palm T/x with Blazer 4.3 crashing on Wikipedia.
Clearing the cache and the cookies seemed to solve it for a while.

Confirm that the bad formatting issue exists with Treo 680 and Palm Centro devices.
A workaround is to go to Preferences in the Blazer web browser and set "Fast Mode" and set "Disable Cascading Style Sheets".

I just switched my Centro's settings to "Fast Mode" and disabled the CSSs... still didn't work.

Bump -- can anybody confirm whether our current handheld stylesheet changes this?

As of a few days ago (can't get the Treo to connect to the internet today, it seems :(), still completely unusable. This is on a Treo 755p with Blazer 4.5.

I just tried accessing from both a Palm Treo 650, Palm Treo 755p and a Palm Centro. They have Blazer 4.5, though the 650's version is a trifle older.
I don't see any improvement. Wikipedia is unusable on the Treo 650 and is only usable on the 755p and Centro if I configure "fast mode" with CSS disabled.

Looks like I trimmed out the handheld style during an overload emergency and forgot to put it back.

Please test again. :)

Make sure you aren't getting a cached page, though... try
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Version
or similar

Yes I can see (through Firefox) where you are defining the CSS for "handheld", but going to the Special: Version page doesn't change anything.

This ticket got assigned to me, but the Wikimedia-Mobile is only going to support
PalmPre unless someone wants to come up with a stylesheet that works on a phone
as old as that.

But, as far as my job, too many cell phone models to manage... and especially how
limited the generation being discussed here was.

I will happily accept a patch (stylesheet or otherwise), but please open another
ticket for that.
