Vaadin looks good, and it makes sense to keep the client-side load light, especially with touch devices becoming prevalent.
But it doesn't seem great (so far) for touch UI work, and I think the "everything in Java" mantra is sub-optimal. While Vaadin has hooks for CSS and hand-crafted JavaScript, my ideal toolset would better support the developers who can make these technologies sing.
