Reporting my latest finding and thought about jQuery Mobile just in case anyone 
interested in using  jQM Frameworks and following this thread.

It's built with progressive enhancement in mind, if a browsing device doesn't 
support javascript, it will do without just fine. All contents are accessible, 
viewable by the user, just no fancy magic touch that you expect from 
touchscreen. It's very promising for mobile web development, but I am still 
waiting for the first stable release.

The following comment is also a reminder for myself:

HTML5, CSS3, Mobile Web Developement, IE9, IE6 no more, progressive enhancement 
javascript (such an old yet new phrase for 2011), I feel pretty excited to try 
working hard on staying inline with the bright young kids in year 2011.

Closing thought for my not-so-bad 2010.
