title: Chrome: mobile vs desktop differences
body: <p>EDITED: Let me expand the scope of this question to browser capabilities wrt HTML5 and Javascript on destop vs mobile platforms. The original question is below.</p>
  
  <p>What's the difference in the capabilities b/w Chrome for desktop (Mac/Windows/Linux) and that for mobile (Android/iOS). For example, look at a Google Apps spreadsheet on your tablet vs on your desktop and you see that the mobile version seems "limited"? The surface area is limited for phones admittedly but why serve up mobile version for a tablet? What are those limitations  (forget extensions when answering this question).</p>
