A: 

I have only used jQTouch, and have been happy about it. It's a fairly light-weight, yet powerful framework.

Peepcode has a nice introductory video tutorial on jQTouch for just $9. If you're evaluating it, you may want to give it a go.

One thing that took me a while to figure out is the use of a tab bar with jQTouch, which isn't directly supported with the current stable release. If you're using tab bar, you should use a later version of jQTouch.

JQuery iPhone UI seems like a more heavy-weight framework. I suggest you to get the full version and play with the demo applications that come with it. That should give you a good idea about the smoothness of the animations. One thing I found is that, this framework may actually support more than just WebKit, whereas jQTouch is pretty much targeted at WebKit browsers.

jQTouch is very easy to use and helps a lot in developing web applications for smartphones. I am using a very nice book on Amazon:

"Beginning Web Development for Smartphones: Developing Web Applications with PHP, MSQL, and jQTouch". The book is worth investment. Very easy to follow and is very cheap too
