I've made the switch, but I was new to web2py and jqgrid when .smartgrid
came out so it wasn't that tough for me. Happily, the result was that
my boilerplate code is now about 10x less than it was with jqgrid.
.smartgrid isn't perfect, but it works well and was easy to implement.
And, I'm suspecting it will improve as time goes on without breaking
backward compatibility.

Hello All,
I've inherited a site running on v1.61.1 and we're looking at
updating/upgrading things.
Grids are an integral part of the site and was built extensively with
jgGrid including a search plugin, etc.
SmartGrid seems to be near the point we need it to be to switch things
over smoothly and I think maintenance would be much easier.
But on the other hand I've gotten to know jqGrid pretty well...so I'm
definitely hesitant to switch from a devil I know...
I was curious if anyone on the list has 'done the switch' and would
kindly share any 'gotchas' they've run across in doing so.
Thanks!
