Clusty Mobile searches the PC web and formats the results list for mobile. When you click on a search result Clusty converts to a mobile friendly page using their own transcoder. The transcoder is pretty basic, it handles forms but doesn&#8217;t split pages or resize images. By default sites are shown without images, if you want to see the images you have to wait for the imageless page to load and then click a &#8220;Show Images&#8221; link.
