what do you think, would be HTML5 ok
for starting new(for phones mostly) site/forum/chat/blah... ?

post your ''yes'' or ''no'' and at least one reason why you think so

i would do it but not yet, maybe in a year or so, because if you do it now your site would not work for those who have old phones.
if you do a site only for smartphones you can start with it now.

I vote for not, on mobile phones. I did not something much worked on it but it seems to me that most of the new features in general are not suitable for mobile phones, although I believe it is good for more complex web sites.
Basically, they just returned style in markup and created a predefined options that are mostly still can not be displayed on most mobile phones in use. At least not the ones most interesting.
This is part of the index of web site that I have working, its mixed HTML5 and XHTML Strict, I just have cuted some texts. :D

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="sr" class="no-js">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8"/>

<link rel="StyleSheet" type="text/css" media="screen, handheld" href="/style.css"/>
