WebTV needs to go on the garbage heap ;)


OK, there we completely agree. However, I believe there is a 'webtv' in the user agent string if you look for it.

Failing that, you can do a screen size check in js and redirect them.

Unfortunately, it's not actually WebTV, it's a WebTV-alike. I'll go poke at logs sometime this week, but I seem to recall that one of its major annoyances was not advertising itself in its UA string, and instead trying to be as much like IE6 as possible.
