Apple & HTML5
Has anyone tried these on iPad or iPhone? Some of them are not smooth on my macbook, surly they must suck on a low CPU device? Or am I wrong?

Tried on my iphone and iPad. The demos work at low framerate and is kind of slow. But its just a mobile device. I am not really expecting cpu intensive html5 application to work on these light devices. Thats what my macpro is for.

Yeah, but Apple seem to be suggesting that you
can
use HTML5 for nice looking (near native animation) effects on these devices.

Do they really? Or do they realize that it's going to be some years before HTML5 is efficient enough and just want native apps?

Why would they bother with this HTML5 showcase in that case?

They are amazing on the iPad. Perfectly smooth and hardware-accelerated.
