Browser detection

Hello...

I am developing an application using C# and ASP.NET. I
wish my code to detect the device the user is using (OS,
Browser) and if a mobile device is being used (PDA,
Phone, etc..) it re-directs to an interface specific for
that set of devices. Else if a device such as a desktop
or notebook is being used it will re-direct the user to a
different interface.

Any ideas?
