I am pretty sure since apple are one of a few companies really pushing html5 and javascript right now, the html5 support for mobile webkit is pretty top notch.

I am pretty sure since apple are one of a few companies really pushing html5 and javascript right now, the html5 support for mobile webkit is pretty top notch. I dont undestand why people think the appstore is apples business, they havent made any money from the appstore, they do however make an awful lot of money selling hardware, but this is for another thread.

> I dont undestand why people think the appstore is apples business, They sure seem fiercely intent on having total control over app developers on the platform though, don't they? Currently JS and HTML5 has very close to zero demonstrated potential to be a viable alternative to creating and distributing the kind of apps that are on the appstore. Again, are you really sure that if it matures to the point where this isn't true any more, Apple wouldn't do something about it? If you are sure, you're naive. Regardless of Apple's intentions (you can think they're Good Samaritans who want to protect users from poorly performing Flash apps if you wish), if there's one thing they've shown is that they really really want total control in that particular space.
