Default Screen resolution stats?

What screen resolution are your real estate web site stats showing? I've seen a couple of sets of stats showing 1024x768 usage at 57%, so I'm considering changing from designing for 800x600 to designing for 1024x768 or some liquid or stretchy compromise.What are you designing for now?

800*600
Have you guys ever looked at what your sites display on a PDA. You might be suprised. I've got mine optimized for PDA's as well.

I don't use a PDA. Maybe someone can look at one of my sites (www.easylivingsolutions.com) and tell me if it looks ok.

It looks fine (it really just displays as it would from a search engine cache). Navagation wise, your "about us, mls search, local area, and contact page" pages gave me a 406 Error "not acceptable by browser". "Home, articles, and featured homes" worked fine.

Thanks for checking Kyle. I don't know why there would be any errors. Hmmm...

Not sure either. I'm looking around to see if I can find anything that references this.

Thanks again Kyle. Do you happen to know the URL of a tool that let's you view a page the way it will display on a PDA?
