IE user-agent with "tablet" attribute detected as mobile

Postby wyanar » Mon Jul 18, 2011 5:07 am

I have a user on desktop IE 9 with the following user-agent being detected as mobile (is_wireless_device=true).
I am using the .NET API.
It seems that the API sees the attribute "Tablet" and disregard it as a IE web browser.
Should this be the correct behavior?

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/5.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; InfoPath.2; Tablet
PC 2.0; OfficeLiveConnector.1.5; OfficeLivePatch.1.3; MS-RTC LM 8; .NET4.0C; Media Center PC 6.0)

I think you have a point there. We will fix it in the next API release

Release of the new minor version of the API which fixes this is running a bit late, but the change is still committed.

Thanks
