I needed a quick and dirty way of getting the jQueryUI Slider component to work with the touch events on the iPhone and iPad (iOS) so after a little thinking I started writing a few lines of jQuery that would listed to the touch events and pass them on to the relevant jQuery core classes so that any components based on jQuery would get the events for Free.
About 10 minutes in it occured to me that this must have been done before and while i like hacking with touch events, I did a quick Google and found the exact script i was about to write.
If your looking to add touch support to jQueryUI components look no further than this Google Code project
