Increasing the performance of Publishing site of Moss 2007 in Mobile Devices

Have you ever been get a chance to look at how much size each page (empty moss pages or custom webpart with no data- pages hosted on moss) takes loading in moss 2007?
It takes nearly 500kb for each page load in moss 2007 site collection.

For each request to the Moss 2007 publishing page loads following basic files

Core.css
Controls.css
Core.js
Init.js
Ie55us.js
Editingmenu.js
Spellcheck.js

and lot more...

The Read access users doesn't require of loading all these files.
These files loaded into the in page, even though if we define our custom master page without any links to the above files.

But this can be a performance problem when the moss 2007 site is requested from the Mobile PDA applications.
We need to make our master page and conent pages lighter weight so that it can be easily accessed in the mobile devices.
To remove these files we need to create one HttpModule, which does the clean up of unneccesary files.

There is a great article available for removing of these files

Happy coding...
