You don't need a.mobi top level domain for VOIP and messaging.
Regarding mobile web, W3C is saying you don't need to isolate mobile browsing from any other browsing. The idea of their standards and their technology is that they are designed to enable the authoring of content that can play universally on a range of device profiles. Otherwise, anyone who wants a web presence has to create multiple sites. That's expensive, difficult and time consuming.
Better to make one web presence that works across devices.
Can it be done? At the standards level, yes, W3C has specified it. Scalable Vector Graphics solves many problems with authoring adaptable content compared to the WAP era. XHTML and SMIL solve more problems. The next challenge is to get the implementations to happen and then to encourage adoption.
Meanwhile, Microsoft would prefer that you implement their proprietary technologies over a fresh domain. Nokia and Vodafone don't want to be strangled by Microsoft (or they want to be the white Microsoft) so they are there too.
But that's just a sideshow if developers and content creators work with the new standards.
"There is a danger, though. As corporate certification and such becomes a necessity for developers, there will be a corresponding dependence on such higher powers. In the effort to pander to certification boards, innovation and free pursuit of new application and programming paradigms may be squelched."
Hardly. You go and innovate all you like. There is no corporate certification anything that's going to stop you from doing anything you want to do.
Do something useful and people will buy it and then you can either work with the certification boards as your friend or go your own way.

What experts?

Forcing someone to buy a particular game can only lead to resentment for either of the creators
I'm not sure what you mean by "forcing" unless you are living in some Stalinist geography where the government makes people buy games or something.
Regarding your thesis on outcomes, are you sure there is only one possible outcome?
What if they make something people like a lot? What would happen then?

You don't address the point that Newton thought and acted as a bitch.
Rather, you use bold type followed by "but I think" followed by any random string.
And then your sig is a bitches sig.

A separate domain for mobile device access is directly contrary of what the W3C is working towards with web standards.

Imagine sending a picture of a barcode to ebay to see if there's an auction for that item running.
I tried that but inevitably and quite rapidly my thoughts kept turning to images of naked babes and luxurious priviledge.

Sorry. I'm just not in data processing mode currently.

What if the machines really were significantly out?
What if there really was no audit trail?
What if university studies like this one really are the only way to spot a discrepancy?
