What would typically be hidden on a mobile theme to conserve page load cannot be hidden here, otherwise the primary purpose of the site would be invisible to mobile users.
If a mobile theme is ever developed for this site it won't be for vB4.x in any case. It will be for vB5.x and the entire site will be redone, a project which is so time consuming I can't imagine it ever taking priority over core software development. <insert $0.02 here>

Most of the activity here is just posting and replying to posts. Every day I use my phone for this and I'm actually using it right now only it is not a good experience at all trying to post using a desktop theme.
A mobile theme even if just for browsing the forums would be very easy to install and would benefit this community greatly.
