lightingCalc: lighting calc on iPhone/Android

Visitors using Android or iPhone/iPad arriving at www.fold1.com will from now on be transferred to the mobile site where a special small form calculator called lightingCalc is available.
The initial screen shows a list of brands that have products available to design with.
After filling in room size...
...and lighting task details, you get a very short form proposal.
With this proposal you have the option either to email to the brands customer service desk in your country, or to place a phonecall to the local custiomer service desk (when available).
This last piece of functionality is not very stable yet, but it will be operational soon.

Technical details: the mobile site is built using HTML5, CSS, jQuery, and jqTouch.
