Making mobile specific designs is a kludge. It's like the 'old' days
of IE or NN specific designs. Go ahead and use funky fonts or what
not, but be sure it degrades gracefully enough that information can
be used.
Of course, some sites have a more specific use than general
information. E.g. a high resolution photo gallery is not meant to be
useful on a green and black PDA screen (or even a color PDA for that
matter).
