html - Responsive order confirmation emails for mobile devices?

I've never seen an amazing order confirmation / invoice email. Even the best html5 websites send terrible order confirmation emails (sometimes in plain text). I believe this is because invoice's usually require the use of tables to show the purchased items, which is extremely hard to implement on a mobile devices.

I found some tricks to making tables more manageable on mobiles: http://css-tricks.com/examples/ResponsiveTables/responsive.php, but for an order confirmation email, this approach wouldn't be practical for an invoice table.

Are there any alternatives to making an order confirmation email look good on a mobile devices? and when making an order confirmation email, should you stay away from tables?

How about something like this? This uses a fluid/liquid technique that works on all major clients, including those that do not support media queries (Gmail etc...):

<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><title></title>
  <style type="text/css">
    #outlook a {padding:0;}
    body{width:100% !important; -webkit-text-size-adjust:100%; -ms-text-size-adjust:100%; margin:0; padding:0;} /* force default font sizes */
    .ExternalClass {width:100%;} .ExternalClass, .ExternalClass p, .ExternalClass span, .ExternalClass font, .ExternalClass td, .ExternalClass div {line-height: 100%;} /* Hotmail */
    table td {border-collapse: collapse;}
    @media only screen and (min-width: 600px) { .maxW { width:600px !important; } }
  </style>

Just be aware that this template doesn't act fluid when resizing your browser window. It works in all major email clients however.
