Drumcat, you say ".mobi and it's associates are dated and dying"?? So, what you're saying is Google, Nokia, Microsoft, Ericsson, Samsung, T-mobile, Vodafone....all of the companies behind dotMobi and the mobile Internet are "dated and dying"? That is a ridiculous statement. Ther are already over a half a mollion dotMobi domains registered, with several International brands launching mobile websites. The mobile Internet is here, it is real, and it is used much differently that the wired web. If you don't see that, maybe you should try taking your head out of the sand (or wherever it may be).

Wow. Keep on drinking the Kool-Aid. The mobile Internet is indeed alive and well, and in fact, growing like crazy. Not only is the mobile web different that the wired web, it provides functionality (one click dialing, for instance) that traditional web sites do not. Besides the fact that, at FULL SALES EXPECTATIONS, only 1% of all cell phone users will have an iPhone.
Personally, I don't think touch screens will catch on with the majority of users. I had one, and hated it. My T-Mobile Dash can do just about anything that the iPhone can do (many things better), and I would not trade it for one. Oh, and my Dash cost 1/3 the price.
