OK
Google today announces even more improvements for the iPhone to be
used by many nations and tongues, the question is do these same Google
pages work the same for any other phone like the Symbian Nokia or
WinMo LG if they run some kind of spoofing software and pretend to be
an iPhone browser?
Do these non iPhone users even see the new richer UI (see below for
details)?

Gmail for iPhone Is Now in 17 More Languages and Richer UI
If you use Gmail in Chinese (Simplified or Traditional), Danish,
Dutch, UK English, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean,
Polish, Portuguese (Brazil or Portugal), Russian, Spanish, or Swedish
you can now access a richer Gmail experience for your iPhone that was
previously only available in US English. While you've been able to
access the integrated Google.com for iPhone in many languages since
May, you'll now see a multilingual version of Gmail for iPhone that
leverages the AJAX capabilities of the iPhone browser and features
address autocomplete, a smoother UI, and mail pre-fetching.
This version of Gmail for iPhone also includes performance and
reliability enhancements including faster loading and better support
for reading your email in both portrait and landscape modes. These
improvements have also been rolled out in US English, as well as for
Google Apps email users.
To try out the updated Gmail for iPhone in your language, go to
Gmail.com (or the Google Mail site for your country) in your desktop
browser, sign in to your Google account, select "Settings," and change
your "Gmail display language" to your desired language. Then, go to
Google.com in your iPhone or iPod Touch web browser, select the
"Gmail" tab, and sign in.
Google Apps users can go to mail.google.com/a/your-domain.com in your
desktop browser and then
www.google.com/m/a/your-domain.com in your
iPhone browser, where "your-domain.com" is replaced with your actual
domain name.
