Reuse UI for smartphones and tablets using PhoneGap + jQuery Mobile


When developing mobile apps using PhoneGap for smartphones and tablets, how to reuse most of the UI code? The reason why I am asking is the UI layout for smartphones apps and tablets will need to be different due to the difference in their screen sizes.
