I'm comfortable with Activity/Place, so I go with it; but GWTP is a great 
tool too, made by skilled people. YMMV.

They're not comparable. It's like asking "should I use Java or Eclipse?". 
GWT Designer can generate Java code and/or UiBinder code.

Should I use GWT-RPC or RequestFactory or something else (RestyGWT

I'd rather go with RF, but some people don't like it and prefer GWT-RPC 
(Google Groups uses GWT-RPC fwiw); as for Activity/Places vs. something 
else, it's also a matter of personal taste. RF has many advantages over 
GWT-RPC, but it's younger so there are bugs too, and it's not as easy to 
use (steeper learning curve)

Absolutely: GIN client-side vs. whatever (Spring DI, Guice, etc.) 
server-side. But that's only talking about DI, and Spring is not only 
Spring DI.
