Using HTML5 Mobile boilerplate (MBP) for developing mobile sites

I want to create a mobile site and want to target almost all devices from High end (Iphone,android) to low end (nokia's, LG Flip-phones).

Which method to choose for dvelopment:

  1. Developing 2 sites one built on HTML5 for targeting latest handsets and second built on XHTML MP for supporting old handsets also.

  2. Using Mobile boilerplate - developing site on HTML5 and including fallback script (with the help of modernizr) for handsets which does not support certain HTML5 features.

Which method seems convenient and sensible.

When you say mobile what kind of output do you want at the mobile devices?

like a mobile app or a website?

if it's ok to be like a mobile app, I would suggest jQuery Mobile (if you're used to jQuery), Sencha Touch, if you love javascript developing or any other mobile framework.

They will support almost any mobile device out there, that at least runs Opera Mobile.

Take a look, for example, at jQuery Mobile Platforms that will run.

If it's a normal website feel that you want, I would suggest Bootstrap Framework with their responsive approach.
