Jokes aside, yes... it is that bad. I help out in the PhoneGap IRC channel, and I see more frustration surrounding jQuery Mobile in the PhoneGap community than any other single tool.

One of the core PhoneGap devs even tried to use it just so he could try and help people who come to us with issues relating to it. The experience was so bad I think he gave up on the idea.

I ended up making the above joke tumblr instead ;) I just try and steer people away from it.

Its performance and (in my opinion) visual appearance bely it's post 1.0 version number.

I've used IUI for mobile web apps. It seems faster than JQuery Mobile. See their site below.
