Tom, as someone who has worked extensively with both JSF and JavaFX, I can assure you that a JSF-based approach like ADF will never get even close to the flexibility and power of JavaFX.

Its like comparing bamboo scaffolds to the Burj Khalifa.

We need a true, rich client approach on mobile devices, and only JavaFX has a real chance of delivering that at the moment.

Having piles and piles of code / tools developed for ADF, having some means to leverage that for mobile development is, I believe, the main driver for ADF Mobile. For example, JDeveloper provides tooling both for ADF and ADF Mobile, using the same databinding support etc.
