Although at first it seems like something you need a toolkit for, I don't think you really do.

A few functions of your own and you can make a more usable toolkit for yourself. It's just a few hours time understanding the javascript object for making the call, and you're all set.

Kathir - Thanks! very handy comparison.

Andrew - I hear you. I have done some AJAX on my own, and also some with Dojo and Rico (which uses Prototype). I agree with you about basic AJAX, but fancier stuff may be easier with a package.

I've been working with GWT since May, and I am completely satisfied with Googles approach for AJAX development.

I disagree with Andrew Pollack and other posters, because GWT is not just an AJAX toolkit. For example, by developing on top of GWT you also have the possibility to debug all your application tiers from within a single environment.

The value that you obtain by working with the same technology on all tiers is huge.

We have actually developed our new version of enterprise product on GWT. Out large enterprise customers love it already. It took us some time to change our entire product on GWT and we had some proponents and opponents (most fights were between choosing GWT or DOJO). GWT won and so far delivers stellar results for us and out customers. Check out our open source enterprise customer care system at www.queplix.com
