link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="handheldstyle.css" media="handheld"
You can set up your mobile style sheets to allow for vertical-only scrolling by keeping your maximum widths to 150 pixels and allowing for smaller font sizes or other mobile-positive format styles that will help your users get the most out of your site.
