Hi Nathan;

Exactly my point Nathan !! ExtJS is great - but it is bloated. Don't code JavaScript just because you can - So for handheld apps where the weight is more on the appearance and simplicity rather on having huge grids where you can rearrange columns you can get really close to an optimal app simply by HTML5 an jqTouch    



Best regards
