The JSP example uses dispatching to JSP for rendering fragments. JSF handles the dispatching for you, by the navigation controller that is defined in the faces-config.xml. The advantage to JSF is that it provides a framework to build portlets with. For simple (2-3 page) applications, I would hack together with JSP. For applications that need flow control, validation, conversion, custom components, then I would use JSF.
