The resources list on Brad Frost's site Jeff linked to is extensive and has everything you might want to get started learning about responsive design. For a jumpstart once you've read a bit about the idea, check out the frameworks like Foundation by Zurb or Bootstrap.

Thanks,
Dave

The initial redesign can be a pain, but it’s ultimately easier than maintaining multiple separate bodies of content. IMHO.
