Did it different significantly from the mobile site? From the looks of it, it shouldn't be that complicated at all. 2 views in a carousel (sidebar and the main list). No transitions, no real attempt at being app like. Doesn't look like it should be that complicated to build.
It seems pretty straightforward on the surface, for sure. However, considering just how convoluted phonegap, weinre and friends can get, it's not hard to believe it turned into a mud ball.
