First, yes, WML is the most standardized way of making it PDA friendly.

 
Second, I would put it in BBGENOPTS.  

 
Finally, every node gets the default WAP cards for the default tests
(they're included somehow with the --wml option that I can't remember
off the top of my head).  The WML:[+|-]testname[,[+|-]testname] syntax
is for modifying that default value.  You can add testnames with +, or
remove default tests already defined with -.

 
I don't know how well they display as the only experience I have with it
is playing with it before we went production with 4.2 (so, during
build-out phase).  Apologies for the lack of experience.

Subject: [hobbit] Enabling WML for blackberry viewing

 
First off, is WML the best option I've got to make Hobbit viewable by
black berry phones (or any PDA/phone?)

Secondly, I read in the bb-hosts man page that I need to start bbgen
with --wml.  Now in etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg it has CMD bbgen $BBGENOPTS
--report.  Should I add --wml to the end of that or stick it in the
variable BBGENOPTS that is made in etc/hobbitserver.cfg? 

Finally, once bbgen kicks into gear with --wml how do I make the page
for the devices to view?

WML:[+|-]testname[,[+|-]testname] <--- confuses my poor self =(
