Great looking product, can't wait for the invite.

I see you guys are associated with Intridea; any chance we can claim this as another DC startup? DC needs all the buzz we can get =)

Why is there such a strong focus on "responsive" CSS? It has never made much sense to me, because my desktop will never turn into a tablet, and my tablet will never turn into a smartphone. It seems as though creating a better server-side abstraction that lets me produce different markup that shares much, but not all, of the CSS would be more effective from a development time perspective.

If you use responsive CSS, what am I missing?

With a responsive design I don't have to write three separate apps for mobile, tablet, and desktop. Instead I adapt the CSS to fit each device. It reduces repetition and keeps everything clean.

One issue with server side solutions in general is caching becomes really hard or ineffective.

With the client side solutions, like responsive CSS, you're serving one cached, distributed, minified set of data to every client.
