I agree, it might not be a perfect solution.
The "jump to new posts" button is quite small and if you put it next to a thread link it will be hard to hit it with a finger. Desktop version on the other hand is clicked with a mouse.
Some inconsistencies between mobile and desktop design are inevitable.
Um, that is not exactly true. Mobile tablets offer desktop versions of their browsers (I have used them). I prefer the desktop version on tablets, and have never had problems with forums (MyFico, 2+2. etc.)
Also, you are forgetting many laptops come with touch screens now (my 17" is a touch screen). Though I mostly use moue, it is easier to increase screen size when these old eyes can't read, than to adjust resolution on monitor (just keep cleaning cloth near by).
