are able? not surprising. that they do, is nice though. twitter got rid of their no-js site, so it's not a given, even for huge websites. amazon does stand out in that their main site still gracefully degrades well, not some alternate version that's stowed away somewhere.

I am grateful for the gmail html version though. ever since they redesigned gmail I've been using that, since it still has the old interface. and it does have optional javascript based enhancements here and there, as you say (e.g. suggesting people from your contacts when typing in a recipient)
