From: Dublin, Ireland. (No, I just live here.)

I use a lot of these lo-fi news sites when on my iPod Touch, since they also fit the small screen better. Some of my faves:
Google and Google News
The Guardian | m.guardian.co.uk
USA TODAY
Times Mobile
Slate Magazine
Salon.com Mobile
Weather Underground for iPhone

In general, try m.domain.com and see what happens.

Skweezer takes any site URL and squeezes it till it squeaks, producing a stripped-down page.

Also: if using Firefox, install NoScript and AdBlock Plus add-ons. These stop all kinds of bolted-on crud from downloading.
