Any redirect on the homepage will make you invisible to the search engines.
However, there is an easy way around this. Do serverside browser detection
and redirect from there.

If a user agent is any browser,  redirect.  If the user agent  is not a
browser, send them to an HTML page.

So, exactly how many redirects on entry to a site
*is* too many for Googlebot?
