It's probably just going to take a while for less tech-savvy businesses to realize the value in doing so. @Steven: Thanks for the link to the Arts Tasmania site. That's awesome (and will likely end up in one of my presentations in the future). @Char: Sites like amazon, facebook, and flickr have shown it’s not impossible to create compelling, useful mobile web sites.

So I went to Google to find the website for Dick's Sporting Goods so that I could find out how late they were open. This is one site that needs some help. To stick to today's theme, the first message I got was that a script was taking too long to load and did I want to abort. I did. I'm not sure what functionality I lost. (The site was so hard to use that I'm not sure it mattered.) But if you ever need a site for your usability studies, I suggest that one, epecially by folks using mobile devices.
