Keep it as lean as possible, use CSS3 animations everywhere via libraries like jQuery Transit and avoid jQMobile at all costs; it's a clunky, bloated beast.

This is very true. Using jQMobile on phonegap can make your app slow down to a crawl. I would suggest CSS3 animations and Zepto.js as an alternative. See the discussion on HN of how tumblr built their iOS app http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4496150
