Simetrical's been doing some work on the handheld stylesheet lately, which brings me to the subject of testing MediaWiki in actual mobile/handheld browsers.
I stuck a few notes up the other day on the subject of testing with emulators:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mobile_browser_testing
To summarize real quick:
* Opera Mini can be tested in any desktop web browser via a Java applet that Opera provides
* IE Mobile / Pocket IE can in theory be tested in an emulator that Microsoft provides (for Windows PCs), but I haven't gotten networking to work so haven't been able to reach a wiki with it
If someone can get the Windows Mobile/PocketPC/Windows CE/whatever thing working, or knows of good resources for testing other mobile OSs/browsers, that would be welcome news!
Volunteers for testing on actual devices and donations of devices are also welcome.

I'm sending this email from a HP iPAQ which, with a fast WiFi connection, I can edit Wikipedia (and my own/other wikis) on.
Some things I've noticed: * to edit, I have to use the ''one column'' layout mode, as the edit box obscures the save page button.
