IE Browsers and False Positives about mobile-fu

[MaffooClock]

Well, I just compared the regex with the UA string in my example link above, and there is no "Tablet" in the regex. Hmm, not sure which string IE is triggering Mobile Fu, but it does happen. I'll have to find a browser that's doing this and get the exact UA string.

I came across the same issue when I use categorizr.js, a client side device detection script written in JavaScript. It happened on some IE10/Windows7(32bit), which contains 'Tablet PC 2.0' string in UA, well doesn't have on others with the same version IE and OS.

http://www.zytrax.com/tech/web/msie-history.html lists updated IE UA history, you will find all UA with 'Tablet PC' but without categories on which version on which devices.

Not sure if you can fix by a RegExp something like:

ua.match(/tablet/i) && !ua.match(/tablet pc/i)

Any ideas?
