iGoogle for iPhone and G1 browsers down

The Google Support forum over the weekend was clogged with users complaining that their iPhone-optimized iGoogle page (google.com/ig/i) was redirecting to the standard Google mobile page (google.com/m/ig).

An iGoogle team member addressed the complaints by saying, "We've decided to direct iPhone users to the standard mobile iGoogle page. We've found that people hit iGoogle from lots of different phones -- we want to ensure you'll all see the same version. Most or all of your existing content should translate over to the standard mobile version. The only exception would be any gadgets that aren't compatible with most mobile browsers."

Among the "lots of different phones" that reported trouble include the G1, which is still returning the rolled-back igoogle page.
