you really dont need to use them to display a mobile site - since you can put a mobile site on any domain, or subdomain or subfolder
they are handy though if you are using them for branding purposes or say for example the original domain is super long and difficult to enter into a mobile device... think bhw.mobi over typing in blackhatworld.com
we have found zero SEO influence of using a .mobi over a .com

mobi domains are worthless and not necessary
I'm doing local marketing for a few businesses, while testing one of my strategies I decided to lock down some .mobi domains to see if they would rank well in search engines for mobile terms.
Go to Google keyword tool and set target devices to mobile devices only, then check your keywords. You may surprised how many people punch in these buyers keywords right in their phone.
I read on one of the thousand forums and web properties that Google is taking extra initiative for their web based algorithm, to the point that mobile websites should in most cases always show up highest in mobile searches for these keywords.
Locked down a dozen .mobi sites, basic on'page seo few backlinks and most of them are rising to the first page of the serps. This is a good tactic, maybe someone who has done more can emphasize further.
I have already secured a few offline sales using this method.

That sounds very interesting to me. I was of the view that .mobi sites are of very small value and weightage.
