The W3C published a set of best practices on how to improve the User Experience of mobile web content. That is a relevant approach, since the mobile web content at the moment has a very varied quality especially from the usability and the accessibility point of view.
Users seem to be happy (and sometimes surprised) about being able to access any site from their mobiles, mostly because they are used to more limited access though a portal provided by their operators. But in the long run, this ‘happiness’ or ‘being surprised’ is not enough - when the mobile web is accessed by masses, the user experience of the content needs to be improved and more uniform.
