[Updated 10/5]
Version 2.0 was just released.
Version 2.0 - multiple mobile browsers supported
After a week and a half of hard work Jared and I committed Version 1.0.2 to Wordpress Extend. we lapsed and forgot to test the plugin on the 2.2 branch and now we’ll need to pull it back for a later release when we get everything straightened out for the majority of users.
Mobile Admin started it’s development shortly after Matt requested on the [wp-hackers] mailing for the community to create an iPhone Admin theme in response to the MovableType iPhone beta theme released just a days prior.
Jared did the majority of hard core coding and I centered around the interface and CSS. Since I was the one with the iPhone I was the lucky one to exhaustingly check in and test new CSS changes for testing on the phone, since there aren’t any good development tools for iPhone devs; iPhoney is phony before anyone suggests it.
Here’s the current trac project home for bugs and management.
Here’s the support and suggestion forums. If you have an iPhone we really need your suggestions so please throw them out to us there.

My post is ready to go, but I’m waiting for the page to go live on Extend before posting it.
Extend is live now, although we need to update it to 1.0.2 to add support (or at least non-breakage) for WP < 2.3
Congrats Dan! Great idea and execution. Now I have to convince my boss I need an iPhone for our blog.
Cheers!
¿Yours will make the plugin work with others mobile phones (n95 :p)?
Alex M: Our plan is to make it for the majority of Mobile Browsers, although those other browsers like Blazer just wont be as pretty.
Alex C: Thanks.
What plugin are you using to have these pingbacks as part of your comments?
I’m not. Yours doesn’t do that too?
Snazy plugin. Does it come with an iPhone? I’ll have to get my roommate to try this out since I don’t have one…yet…
Also, your site looks so much better in Safari than in Firefox. I’m not sure what it is but it just looks better, brighter, bolder.
The Daily Mac must have picked up on my Apple-hate, since they didn’t mention me.
Probably.
And now that I can unlock it, Ill buy one
Thanks so much for making this. It’s great!
Hi guys. I really like the look of your plugin, but since I am running 2.5, I haven’t had a chance to try it out.
In the forums there are some questions regarding porting this to WP2.5. I am by no means an expert in the field, but if you are looking for help to fix this for version 2.5, I would be more than happy to lend a hand. There aren’t many plugins that do this, and I feel that this is a necessary part of WordPress, especially as the internet becomes more mobile on small devices.
I’d also like to test this for WP 2.5. Just shoot me an email when an alpha or beta is ready. Thx
Heyas, Any update for us wordpress 2.5 users
I’d help if I had time, but maybe I can.
Yay this is one great plugin, I am using it for a while and its brilliant!
