There are 2 main things to consider while developing a mobile site in Tridion:

  1. Content / Template Blueprint Structure - Will your mobile site be a 1:1 copy of the content on the main site? Or a subset of content specific to certain actions / sections the mobile visitor will likely use? I think the subsite approach is best for websites where most users register for a flight, buy a product, or login to use a web app. The subsite could also include a link to the main site. The subsite would have its own set of templates, components, and pages but re-use the schemas.
  2. CSS/HTML - Rendering the site well on a mobile device is a game of writing good, clean HTML and CSS targeted to mobile browsers. This is easily done in Tridion with new templates for a subsite approach. But, if you decide to offer all the same content as the main site but with a mobile friendly CSS then you have a more serious effort to re-write your existing CSS / HTML and use a responsive design. This is a much bigger effort than a subsite - but your website design would be 'future proof' and work with most mobile browsers for the next few years.

I hope this helps. This is a common question and Tridion's Blueprint technology can help you maximize re-use of schemas, templates, and content across different channels.
