Most email clients love being told explicit instructions (e.g. pixel widths rather than percentages) and without a specifically defined viewing area, some can take those percentages quite liberally. My advice is to keep using a specific pixel width like you have been, and then use @media queries to define specific viewports. Here's a <a href="http://stylecampaign.com/blog/2011/08/using-media-to-bypass-max-width/" rel="nofollow">great article</a> on that from Anna Yeaman of Style Campaign fame. Give a shout if you have any other questions! Hi DB,

We are starting with the iPhone app, but of course, Android is a huge platform and it's certainly in our sights. I can't give you a date on this, but it's certainly something we're considering.
