Care to share your resources and results?

Yes getting into mobile is worth it.
My conversion ratios for my regular affiliate programs are around 1:3000
and my mobile conversion rate is around 1:700.

Most sales i see now a days are from my iphone sites. Mobile is not just limited to phones though. You have psp, ipod, zune, and all kinds of other portable devices. Its a bigger market share than what most people think. I tend to target iphone users because my thinking is if you have 250 or 300$ to spend on a phone along with a 100$ month plan, you can spend 30$ a month on a porn membership without thinking twice. Also the keyword term iphone porn has been increasing in searches ever since i started in the mobile biz.
One of the biggest misconceptions i come across, webmasters think they need to devlope websites with a wap format. As the smartphone market increases there are less and less users that come from wap enabled phones. In europe this may be a diferent story but for the US this holds true for the figures i see.
Going the mobile route can be as simple as building a blog advertising one of the many mobile devices out there.
