jQuery Mobile 1.0 final is out

Important: Many of the tutorials are old and should not be followed. The current version of jQuery Mobile is 1.0! Please be careful while looking through the links

I have updated my answer to point out the right resources for final release


I was wondering if there is a tutorial for people experienced with jQuery - to know some conventions for the new jQuery mobile as it is going to be released soon. I especially like those that show how to make an example app, but please post what you consider best. Only thing required is that it shows some use of JS and new events that jQueryMobile introduces. So it's not a question about basic tutorials.


OLD Basic tutorials:

I've obviously googled for it and got these: http://blogfreakz.com/mobile-development/jquery-mobile-tutorials/ [<- this links to a page linking to 5 tutorials] which are showing the idea, but aren't really interesting for a jQuery developer.

This here has some actual jQuery code in it, but not much: http://thoughtsunlimited.net/intro-to-jquery-mobile/


So this question is mostly to people that have already tried out some tutorials and know what they'd recommend. I think this question might be useful to people in the future.

Bounty will be awarded to an answer that links to tutorials covering the largest number of methods available from jQueryMobile.
