This first comment about hiring great generalists rather than people who know mobile development has been echoed countless times and it's amazing how often people make that mistake. The most recent example I can think of is from Kevin Rose who said the same thing about how they needed PHP people at Digg until PHP wasn't good enough or they switched languages. Lesson learned: just hire great engineers, even if they code in ColdFusion or something terrible.
