    I am one of those people that likes the desktop experience no matter what device I am on.

    I have a responsive theme (MesoColumn) for my site. I have been toying with taking out the header code

    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />

    so that it shows up as a desktop version no matter what. Since mesocolumn is a responsive theme it shows up as the desktop version only on my iphone but as the mobile version on android even with the viewport code removed.

    My question is… how do I or is there a plugin that can give visitors the option of choosing a mobile or desktop experience. Even before they visit the site would be better.

    if it is responsive then the css file probably has a lot of definitions for how the page is seen when the browser width is smaller.

    Start there.. also do you have a mobile plugin installed? that can do it .. or code in the functions.php or supporting files in your theme directory…

    but start with your styles.css and look for definitions that control that

    Actually, I believe ToDotBlogger wants to not have a responsive site in some cases.

    WPtouch has an option to allow mobile users to pick the mobile version or the desktop version. But, that plugin provides a very basic mobile version theme. You can work with a Premium version of WPtouch to get around that or use a pre-built mobile theme.
