The functionality behind almost any CMS that I know, works with mobile devices. The only recommendation is that you need to optimize the CMS web interfaces to work well with small screen sizes. Also pay attention not to use any unsupported feature of the mobile device browser agent.

PHP and MySQL are perfect for your project, and you can find many open source examples. The constraints came from the mobile device browser agent.

When designing your pages use very simple layout structures, don't use floating elements (like for example the right sidebar here on capmex.biz), structure your content using the appropriate (x)html elements and style them using CSS, use images optimized for mobile devices.
