Hey John Sorry it seems my e-mail wasn't worded well... it makes it seem like that specific example was the catalyst for creating that wiki page when in fact the wiki page was created to discuss the __whole of this thread__ (I'm not sure if you've been following it or not).
I would personally appreciate your input on it as I believe you've got a lot of experience in mobile development. Best wishes Jon

is a PITA and will take years! (there are tons of it!)
Wow! This is exactly why I think inline styles might be a bad thing :-) - this really draws attention of the user away from the content.
I've started a wiki page for this discussion - it seems like a better place to do this from now on since this thread has already been confused and gained a lot of length! I've given it the generic heading 'Deprecating Inline Styles' and when I get time will add a mobile specific section: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Deprecating_Inline_Styles
