People are entirely missing the point. If I connect to silicon.com from my mobile, the server should deliver content optimized for my device. There is no need for silicon.yetanothertld. The best way to make WAP take off is to support it at the addresses users already know and make it easier for users to manage their viewing. When I'm looking at something on my mobile (or anywhere else for that matter), I should be able to mark it to review later ("stashing"). My list of stashed items is kept on the server, so when I later connect from my computer, the list of things I want to read is right there. Conversely, if I'm stuck waiting somewhere, catching up on my reading at 20 words a page suddenly becomes attractive.
