Just FYI all. I've, in the last two days received the following email via my Google Webmaster Account regarding two of my sites. One of the sites on the second page of results for its niche and the other site on the first page. Each email the same except for the site concerned.

Darn, didn't get the start of the email copied correctly. Here is the beginning before above:

Fix mobile usability issues found on xxxxxxx

To: webmaster of xxxxxx

Google systems have tested 44 pages from your site and found that 100% of them have critical mobile usability errors. The errors on these 44 pages severely affect how mobile users are able to experience your website. These pages will not be seen as mobile-friendly by Google Search, and will therefore be displayed and ranked appropriately for smartphone users.

Are you getting to work on those sites with RLM?

I'll change one with RLM, but the other one is Word Press and I'll just pick one of WPs responsive templates for that one.

I think we're all getting such mails from Google these days. I'm working full-time on one site after such a mail and have some more in the pipeline.

I posted that for info, as the two sites I have gotten email, though doing good in their very specific keywords, but a very deep niche. I was kinda surprise that Google had already gotten around to me in their new responsive slant. I figured I was hundred of thousands of places down their priority list before they would ever get around to me.

They probably have some fast working google bot for that sort of tasks, and when it comes across a non-responsive site, they bang out an automated mail. Untouched by human hands.
