Comment (by joshuaodmark):

 I would highly suggest working in WURFL to perform mobile detection.

 It comes with a single XML configuration file which allows it to be
 updated easily.

 It has a cache mechanism that complicates things slightly, but supports
 the most popular cache mechanisms including a flat file system.

 By doing this, it would allow WordPress to provide an object to themes &
 plugins that will not only detect a mobile device, but it will give
 advanced details in a standardized format such as screen resolution,
 brand, model, OS, OS version, and more.
