You do know, though, that this was the original approach of bringing the internet to mobile devices and failed miserably? People don't want 2nd class mobile versions. Companies don't want to duplicate their efforts for a mobile audience. The only way that proved successful so far was to bring "the real thing" to mobile devices - the way Nokias IT series does.
