Just adding this one (that most of you probably have seen) since this
thread features some talk about mobile development:
http://ajaxian.com/archives/yo-yo-developer-killer-cross-platform-mobile-web-apps-with-jo

I haven't checked it out yet, so I can't comment. As far as a
framework it looks pretty cool as it seems to easily support all kind
of platforms. I mean, Jo makes your life easier when developing a
mobile app.

Maybe Christoph can write a post indeed (hehe) about his ideas/views
and compare it with frameworks pro/cons (not diving deep into all
frameworks, just mobile framework vs mootools in general I guess).
