You haven't given much away. Since most mobile phones can't run the
Javascript required for the "full" Google Maps API, some compromises
will be necessary. You don't say what the "usual features" are that
you require. But route planning in particular is not widely supported
(and isn't available server-side to deliver the results to the
client).

If you take the decision to build something which uses Static Maps,
you run into problems with the Terms of Service.

As you haven't said what design path you're considering, it's not easy
to comment on its viability. If your design path so far is "Use Google
Maps API" then I reckon you may well regret it sooner than three
months' time, depending on which mobiles you're targeting.
