Start with the basics - what platform(s) do you need to support.  Is
the project IOS-specific? Android? Blackberry?

Must the project be written using "native" SDK's or can it be an
HTML-based app?  If it can be HTML-based, I'd recommend a look at
Responsive Web Design[1] techniques and Phonegap[2].

Personally, I tend to prefer HTML5 over native but there are
exceptions (some things just aren't available via the browser yet).

Anyway, context regarding the project requirements should help narrow
down what you need to learn.
