Even with better screens and good scrolling capabilities, 800×600 may still be too much for sites intended for mobile use. For sites intended for smaller platforms, I would recommend different designs, possibly achieved with different CSS files. This is not only a resolution issue, it’s also very likely that the interface constraints affect user behavior. Mobile users may even have entirely different site usage goals which necessitate a different design.

A lot of portable devices use this resolution or even less. I guess if you want to make your site phone-friendly, you will have to either keep it low-rez or serve a low-rez version to phone browsers such as fennec.
