No, sorry there is no support for non-ajax models right now. The plan
is to implement different datasources for the models, but right now
I'm overloaded with work and things are slowly moving on. I started
working on a restful datasource for webapps, that should replace the
json() method in the models. That should also work on CouchDB. We also
talked about Air and Gears.
You can expect that for 0.5, but unfortunatly I cannot set any date of release.
If you build something with Jamal + Gears I'll be happy to hear about it.

Timo
