Very cool, but absolutely don't use for a functional web-app unless you want to confuse your users.

  Unless behind the scenes it does an ajax call to the server to update the value. I think that web apps that behave like embedded runtime applications are going to be more prevalent as time goes on.

    Very good point, ajax is a must and most likely what aresant was referring to as the confusing part for users.

    You allude to an important point of distinction between the Cocoa Touch binary switch and the traditional form checkbox: The former is presumed instantaneously effective, while the latter may or may not require a form submission.

  Unless it is the mobile (read: iphone-targeted) version of said web app where you want to emulate the iphone user experience

    Good point!

    But then again, you'll never be able to perfectly replicate native iPhone UI in a browser. It's best to avoid creating that expectation with your users.
