Good article in the NEw York times today about mobile with signifcant (if somewhat outdated) information about mobi. link here http://www.nytimes.com/inc_com/inc1208174433604.html?ref=smallbusiness
most relevant part of article,

"What businesses need to do now

The short answer is not a lot, except wait. However, it may be a short wait when you consider the following numbers. Right now, mobile devices are outselling PC's four to one. Two thirds of the world's population lives within range of a cell phone tower. In less than a year, more than 500,000 domain addresses with the new .mobi extension (like.com) have been sold. Most of the .mobi landlords are companies and individuals from the United States. The mobile Web is clearly coming and coming fast.

For now a business owner would be wise to consider the following:

Consider, at least, buying the .mobi version of the company Web address. Even if you aren't prepared to launch a mobile-optimized site, stake your claim and sit on it until you are ready. You don't want to have to bid up for it through a broker someday."
