Has anyone done a port of ua-parser?

I am looking for a good Apex implementation of User-Agent parsing.  I am surprised that no one has done an apex port of ua-parser on the official site.   https://github.com/ua-parser

Okay - I'm trying to find out what ua-parser really is.

What is it?  What's it used for?

Okay - I found what a user-agent is.

Now - I'll watch to see if anybody has thoughts on Matthew's origional question...

It is a library to parse the user-agent string.  It gives a more reliable breakdown of browser, operating system, and device (mobile vs desktop).
