It wasn't immediately clear to me how this actually works. After looking into it, I found what you'll probably be interested in: ...building a native app with Objective-C is a risky proposition. Fortunately, there is an alternative. You can build a web app using open source, standards based web technologies (jQuery and jQTouch, in particular), release it as a web app, and debug and test it under load with real users. Once you are ready to rock, you can use PhoneGap to convert your web app to a native iPhone app and submit to the App Store. If it is ultimately rejected, you aren’t dead in your tracks because you can still offer the web app. If it is approved, great! You can then start adding features that enhance your web app by taking advantage of the unique hardware features available on the device... The conversion is done by wrapping your web app inside a native app using WebKit.
