Using WebViews inside a ListView is a bad idea. We tried :) The biggest problem is that when you load data inside a WebView, it takes some time to do the parsing/layout and it happens that it is too slow in the case of scrolling a ListView.
As for the scrollbars, Cupcake has a solution for it. There is a new attribute for ListView telling it to disable smooth scrollbars; that's what you want when the items have (very) different heights.
