If you want to support a broad range of devices jQM is the way to go and the new v1.1.0 final release has a lot of bug fixes and improvements. I'm using jQM with backbone.js, and require.js on node, but would advice to use azicchetti's router https://github.com/azicchetti/jquerymobile-router instead of the backbone router.

I wish we could stay with jQM but honestly, even 1.1.0 is still just too buggy - things like buttons overflowing the grid blocks, images not sizing correctly, etc - the lack of "fit and finish" just destroys the user experience - it would be nice if we had the time and resources to correct and submit fixes but looks like a big learning curve and undertaking and frankly can't even register on the forum (and noticing most posts arent' getting answered. we are routing on the server (yeah not quite as fast as on client and much of it is data transfer but we'll work on that later).

I'll look at jQTouch tonight and evaluate -

    There are *many* mobile frameworks these days.

    yes indeed - actually we are more interested in the CSS display
    side and js actions (ie fixed position nav bar - in the future a
    client side framework will likely be used but for now sticking
    with our server side node framework

    I'll explore some of the sencha touch suggestions made above -
still kind of curious the difference between touch 2 vs JQTouch and which would be easier to use with our server side node.

            we've tried using JQuery Mobile but it's way too buggy
            (and note all the unanswered posts on the forum which is
            not a good sign)

            Sencha Touch seems popular but looks complex to use with
            a node framework so looking at JQTouch (I guess it's some
            sort of off-shoot from Sencha).  We want to keep things
            as simple as possible.

            any experiences / suggestions ?
