Is there some "contact us" option so that we can tell google their wap site is f***ed up?

I have been using wml and xhtml versions for yonks and have all but given up on them. For me wml is only good for the mobile web, entire web 9 times out of 10 returns errors. Same for xhtml, i can get 1 or 2 pages into a website then errors occur. Picture results work find thou.... Wish they would fix this, its frustrating! I sent then an e-mail once but no reply.
Think iv had better luck using google through http://gateway.oceanlake.com/ give it a try.

I've also given up on the wml version of Google. Noticed problems last year but in the last couple of months it's been giving crazy results when you're searching for the most simple things.

I've been using Google for years. The problem started yesterday.
The problem is.... Google is the only search engine that is provided from my cell provider. I gues I can play with one of my bookmarks and edit the url to what ever search I want and then rename it.
That may be my work around.

Me and a few friends are having problems with the google mobile search.
Any search submitted returns an obscene title which is unfound. Nothing anywhere near what the actual search is.
I've tried it on other phones with different sim cards and the same obscene titles are produced.
Has your site been hacked?

Thanks for taking the trouble @REO

Btw there's a thread here which has a compilation of various wap search engines. Might be of help.
