I wouldn't worry too much about mobile devices. They're evolving very
fast. Think a few years down the road.

In any case, signing on the client can be problematic for a different
reason, namely that obtaining the certificate you need for signing is
not a simple process at all. It will be too complicated for the
majority of users. That has been discussed in the spam threads.

Frankly, I'm not so sure it's really necessary. As long as the server
is trusted (has a valid certificate etc), and the user is
authenticated by that server, it should be enough. What is needed
however, is a way for the client to get all the servers' signatures
for a given delta and verify them. This needs to be supported by
whatever C/S protocol that will be developed.
