On the mobile side, we've found: 1. Fetching is harder than scrolling 2. Different devices can support different sized lists; keep the list size smaller than the max size for the device (surprise!) 3. Applications can do dynamic loading of lists ... see the Gmail app: when you get near the bottom of the currently loaded list, the app fetches more of the list without user interaction. The user just keeps scrolling down. 4. If breaking a list onto different pages, provide your full navigation scheme on each page. Be careful with backward navigation; test with users.
