Hi, We can use userAgent string in HTTP request to identify. Thought it might not be there already, but iPhone browser people can think of sending string "iPhone" and IMEI number in UserAgent string. Not only in scott case, this will be helpful to identify specific iPhone for one time download contents or online gaming in future. Br, MKK

Errr, you can get and use a cookie. That's why cookies exist. I very much doubt that there's an ability to uniquely identify a specific iPhone without a cookie anymore than you can uniquely identify any other computer/web browser....

Hopefully this is the proper list to post to: I am writing an iPhone web application, and know how to tell that I am talking to an iPhone, but is there a way to uniquely identify a specific iPhone? For example, some header or something I can get with either server side or browser side code and store on the server side so in the future I know which iPhone this is?
I know I can implement a cookie style log-in system, but I was hoping for some value I can just get and use.
