I believe this topic has been discussed in the recent past. Perhaps the answer to your question is already in the mailarchive (see http://lists.openmoko.org/nabble.html#nabble-td3506259).

Try opening up Midori, go to Edit> Preferences> Network> Identify as> Custom

And put in:

Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU like Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/420+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.0 Mobile/1A543a Safari/419.3

This should help.

Niels.
