    Unhappy Google Finance default to mobile site on PB?

    I check Google finance regularly and it worked on my PB just like on PC. Well, that seems to have changed. I checked Google Finance on my PB a few minutes ago and was directed straight to the mobile site. At the bottom, there was a link to Classic but tap on it just did not work.

    Anyone having the same problem?

    Yes. I am currently getting the same issue. Not tried through WIFI but no good through Bridge or Tether. Not at all happy about this

    August 3, 2011: 10:37am.
    I just checked and when going to www.google.com/finance/ it redirects to "www.google.com/m/finance"

    Trying to force the classic view is useless because it again redirects to "www.google.com/m/finance" and that link shows a google page with no information.

    so Google Finance is not working for me

    Yahoo finance does "finance.yahoo.com"

    It turned out that Zoom and iPhone both have the same problem. Maybe it was just Google screwed up here...

    I noticed that too on some other sites. It looked like they were going to block PB users but then they are back again.

    Yes it may be best not being able to see what the markets are doing at the minute.
