My thoughts exactly, but as you pointed out:
wap.domain.com, mobi.domain.com or even
www.domain.com/mobi
There is no standardization in the industry. Add the m.domain, the i.domain, mini.domain and ... you get the point.
There are no limits on who, what, or how someone can create, do, or say mobile. Oh, and then multiply the countless ways you can think of to say mobile without saying mobile and multiply that by 266...the number of gTLD's and ccTLD's. Can't forget. Surprisingly there are other extensions beyond the .com.
So why not just say mobile with .mobi? How difficult is that?

That is your view. Gotta respect that. But that is not based on any facts whatsoever.
If you want and need specifics, go back and read the many threads regarding .mobi usage or even the points made previously in this thread. Even my own traffic stats indicate that this is contrary to actual usage. Google it, look at the sites out there, perhaps a few members here can chime in with data and charts of their own site's performance.
Otherwise, I have to go to bed after working last night.
Don't worry, I won't lose any sleep over this as I am quite confident the debate will rage on.
Again, domainers talking about domaining. Ain't life grand!
