Grid Frameworks, Responsive Design and GWT

Hello GWT Community!

I'm looking to gather the collective knowledge of this community to answer a subjective question regarding GWT.  I'm starting to rewrite our suite of applications from scratch (i.e. version next) and our group is mainly made up of GWT engineers, so GWT will be the basis for the project moving forward.

I'm curious what other people in the GWT community are doing for responsive designs.  I have looked around the web a bunch and come up with a few possible choices:

1.  Use GWT a la the mobilewebapp sample project and provide by hand 3 sets of view components for desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.  
2.  Use a framework like GWT-Bootstrap (is anyone else using this right now?) that wraps the native twitter bootstrap grid system.
3.  Use a grid framework like twitter bootstrap, unsemantic, etc, etc, etc (there are tons), just accessing the classes they provide via UiBinder (or setting the class on your containers in the java code)
4.  Is there another way, or rather, what other ways are there?

I think each of these has their benefits and drawbacks.  I'm hoping there are other ways people have done this beyond the methods I mentioned, if for no other reason than things to think about.

What have you done?

Thanks in advance for your time,

Lavie
