The old mobile skin had content adaptability issues and did not work well on devices with higher resolution screens. Getting rid of that was a step forward and did justice to people's articles - a #1 priority. The only thing I miss about the old skin is just the wordmark.

It would sure be nice to be able to make blog comments in the mobile skin, but I don't imagine the blogs played nice with either skin.
