So, if I'm looking at xkcd on my phone, how do I trigger the mouseover text?

Download the Android XKCD app - it'll display the mouseover text.

...or go and look at the comic's individual thread in the Forum, which hauls it out separately.

There is a shiny new m.xkcd.com. Annoyingly, not only does the main page not auto-change to it when I look at it from my iPhone, but there is no link to it from the main page. Haven't gone looking for an RSS feed of mobile version yet.

You can't without either visiting the mobile XKCD website or using an app that will get it for you – unfortunately, because XKCD isn't the only comic that employs mouseover text, and most of the solutions to this only work with XKCD, it rapidly becomes impractical to use a touchscreen to read webcomics. It's why I don't really read RSS on the go anymore, just read it from my Mac :)
