Hmm, sure, in fact that's probably in a nutshell the summary of the 
Mobile Web Initiative workshop that took place last week.

But don't worry, the incentive to get much better content than that on 
mobile devices is extremely high (and in part already there for those in

happens when that content grows much, much more, knowing that that's soon.
