the truth is that you don't need to know Javascript (maybe except few
things) and I don't understand why coming from Java world and knowing
GWT (it seems you know it to some point) could be an obstacle for you,
You've rumbled so many questions that people could be confused (see
e.g.: "equivalent for PHP of Java Hibernate lib"),
Things you need to do in GWT (or any Java based framework) are:
- write custom widgets based in iUI elements (they are different from
e.g. GWT default widgets, so you need custom ones)
- bind your widgets with styles form iUI.css where required,
- remember that iUI.css define styles based on relative hierarchy of
elements in dom object (body>toolbar>h1) mostly
- add a code that detects scrreenrotation or add JSNI bidning to be
fired from existing iui.js code,
- if you want to use iUI.js "as is" do not add GWT history support
- if you want GWT history support you need to rewrite application
logic from scratch based on ui handling from iUi.js (e.g. screens
transitions),

if you DON"T want to deal wiht iUI css or javascript and simply want
something that will work on iPhone but still written in Java please
