Hi Amit, the market for web-apps specially designed for mobiles is rather new, the technological decisions made in that area aren't quite settled yet. Its not even clear if serving your content in an web-app is the best approach. The biggest problem seems to be the big number of different devices out there. Solving that is not really dependent on the framework you use for developing the web-app. Though if you use wicket your toolbox is well set. Since it is not possible to render the content customized down to every device out there a classification of the devices needs to be done. Then it is a monetary question to decide how many device classes ought to be supported. With wicket you might have the chance of developing the components once and then render em using the html template that fits the device best. Wickets style mechanism is a good entry point for that.
