Available iPhone Web Application JavaScript UI Library/Frameworks

Question

I'm starting a web application that will target Mobile Safari on iPhone/iPod Touch. I'm evaluating the available client-side JavaScript/CSS libraries/frameworks that are currently out there.

These are the ones I'm currenlty aware of:

• iUI
• CiUI
• UiUIKit
• WebApp.Net
• iWebKit
• Apple's Dashcode Application - not really a standalone library/framework, but it provides/generates JavaScript, CSS, and images that conform to the native iPhone UI metaphors.

Are there any others out there? I want to make sure I'm not missing any before I make a decision. I'm only looking for client-side JavaScript/CSS solutions and building one from scratch isn't an option because of time constraints. No server-side PHP, Ruby, Python, Java, etc. solutions.

I am aware of the iPhone web applications, templates, frameworks? question that was asked, but this only mentioned iUI and UiUIKit.

Thank you

Old question, but still relevant. Sencha (the new name of the company behind ExtJs) just released the mobile app platform Sencha Tounch for iPhone, iPod, iPad and Android: http://www.sencha.com/products/touch/

Update: John Resig recently announced that the jQuery team is working on a mobile UI library. Looks promising: http://jquerymobile.com/2010/08/announcing-the-jquery-mobile-project/
