“There are fantastic web applications on the iPhone. I use Gmail and Google Reader as a Web app, for example. The browser is good, but I have written many times … about how I wished that Apple let me go the extra mile and access more from the Web side of things.”Dion Almaer, of Ajaxian fame, provides his own response to PPK, citing APIs and discoverability as the primary benefits of going native over web. It surprises me that most of these articles do not dive into PhoneGap—a great bridge for iPhone web apps which gives developers access to native APIs (via Javascript) and allows them to publish to the app store.
